The Black Swan Event reaches its stunning conclusion with Book Four from international bestselling author, Bobby Akart, one of America’s favorite storytellers, who has delivered up-all-night thrillers to over two million readers in 245 countries and territories worldwide. They’re here. The comet was never a natural disaster. The conspiracy was never about politics. The abilities the Pickett family has carried for generations were never random. Everything—the science, the secrecy, the sacrifice —has been leading to this moment.

Ninety days after the sky fell, the real crisis begins. The comet has passed. The sky has stopped falling. But for the Pickett family and the seven billion survivors left in its wake, the nightmare is only beginning. Across the globe, strange metallic objects have appeared. Seamless, silent, and immovable. They cannot be destroyed. They cannot be captured. And they are watching.

A wild ride through the 70’s and 80’s, this family saga is told through the eyes of a child who can gather no moss during her nomadic upbringing. Full of high times and holy rollers, her absurd journey has her bouncing between Southern California and South Carolina — several times — as she’s shipped back and forth from drug & drama-filled chaos on the one coast, to a pistol-packing Pentecostal great-grandmother on the other. From a family that’s part rock, a little country gravy, and almost 100% crazy, is it any wonder she’s a “Natural Disaster” in the making?

In a world plagued by devastating storms, Gavin and his team find themselves thrust into a life-or-death struggle in the gripping second installment of the series. Captured by ruthless looters, their survival hinges on an impossible task: mending the shattered atmosphere before time runs out.
