Sins of Survival : Book One: From Darkness (Paperback)

Civilization is quickly devolving into corporate factions employing their own armies which civilians called Neighwahs. They rain war on each other without mercy for power, territory, and precious resources. In the aftermath of the plundering, cities are left unprotected and stripped of their supplies. Then ruthless rogue mercenaries called drangers move in and prey on the noncombatants called dailys, struggling to stay alive and fight for scraps.

Jillian is a daily clinging to a promise of hope. She is sworn to secrecy about a sanctuary city, but she prays the shadow group with their cryptic messages and military procedures will forgive her for telling her sister. For a chance at happiness and peace, they risk death for knowing too much, or unspeakable abuse at the slave camps.

Bannon Vogel lost half of his family to a violent attack. He found himself the owner of a vast shipping and supply empire along with all its dubious secrets and skeletons. With the help of his army of defenders, he pulls in every favor, debt, and opportunity to accumulate supplies for his secret city in the Eisenhower Tunnel. He intends to reestablish a place of civility, but it will cost the residents their freedom and perhaps their souls.
