As two of the McDaniel survivors navigate the wreckage of Ohio and Northern Kentucky in search of Leighton and Rowan, Marley treks through five-hundred treacherous miles of post-apocalyptic wasteland as she journeys west from the heart of D.C. back home to Nicholasville, Kentucky.

In Nicholasville, Gator and Trixie have been tasked with keeping the McDaniel homestead safe after the war they left behind. But the aftermath of the war has caught up with them, and they’re not sure if they can survive it. They’re about to lose their homes, the entire town, possibly even their lives.

As the founding members of the mercenary-trained Hayseed Rebellion arrive in search of their president and his team, the good folks of Nicholasville ready their defenses. With a resurgence underway and the rule of law forgotten, Nicholasville will take up arms to protect their homes, their land, and the people they love.

With all the trademark action, suspense and mile-a-minute thrills you’ve come to expect from Ryan Schow’s adrenaline-fueled thrillers, These Times of Insurrection puts the cherry on top of this post-apocalyptic cake, further proving that ordinary people can suffer the worst of tragedies while managing to bring out the best of each other, find the strength of family, and embrace the spirit of community.

On February 12, 2021, get ready to for the fifth and final edge-of-your-seat installment of The Abandon Series!
