“Rob is a middle-aged man in Texas who is self-described as an ‘avid hunter, outdoorsman, and sometimes hiker.’ He is married with two teenage daughters. His oldest, Ann, has recently started college. He is on his way for a fall hunting trip when the unimaginable happens. An electromagnetic pulse has just crippled everything and everyone around him. Rob recognizes he cannot stay and wait for someone to come help. He sets out on foot, knowing he has a long walk home. His first thought is to reach his daughter Ann so they can make the rest of the journey home together,” writes Adkins.
“Ann is trying to figure out what has just happened. She is an athletic and forthright young woman and soon starts finding herself at odds with others.

“The story unfolds when they each meet their own sets of problems, worries, and outright dangers as Rob and Ann journey home. ‘HOMEbound’ explores each of these characters as they navigate a world no one ever expected to see. Rob and Ann will face hardships, fear, and a search for meaning in a world going into societal breakdown.”
