THE LINE OF DEPARTURE

From the author of the postapocalyptic thrillers THE END, THE LONG ROAD, and SANCTUARY, this fourth book in the New World series explores what happens when boundaries are stretched beyond imagination, and resourcefulness is the only thing that will keep you among the living.

The United States is on the brink of total anarchy in the wake of a super-EMP attack. Gordon Van Zandt and his family have managed to beat the odds so far, but can they survive once war erupts? Major cities are run by gangs, survivors are dying of starvation, and the government is falling victim to lawlessness. Those who were prepared for the end find that they weren’t really prepared at all. While some seek vengeance for their losses, others are determined to restore the nation. Gordon, Samantha, Sebastian, Barone, Connor and Pablo have managed to survive despite the odds against them, but their existence becomes even more threatened by the atmosphere of destruction that permeates the nation.

Former Marine-turned-author, G. Michael Hopf grabs readers from page one with its blend of action, adventure, and political intrigue. THE END—the first book in Hopf ’s New World series—has sold more than 50,000 copies, and word of mouth is quickly building on the series as a whole.

G. Michael Hopf is a combat veteran of the U.S. Marines Corps and a former bodyguard. He lives with his family in San Diego.
