In May a supernova started emitting electromagnetic pulses that reached Earth and shorted out everything electrical. In one day, mankind was thrust back into a pre-electrical age. Housing developments like OakHollow banded together to trade goods and services in an effort to survive; and eventually the federal government conscripted mechanics, electricians, and scientists to create radiation hardened material by hand.

Evil still exists, as is evidenced by the shooting of Zach Emory. The people of OakHollow blame Mark Green; because his father was a convicted murderer and his brothers were also involved with pornography, stolen goods, and murder. Two teens testified that Mark had been in the area where Zach was shot, even though he claims he was closer to town in another hunting area. He is arrested; but during a jail break, guards are killed and the sheriff critically wounded. Mark doesn’t go with the escapees but is released. He wants to prove his innocence; and with the love of his life, Deni Branning, a relentless reporter, they attempt to do just that, although the killers are closer than they know to them.

This is the third "Restoration" novel, and this is the best book in the series to date. Each novel is built upon the previous one, so the readers get to see the events and the progress man makes in coping with them, but it also behooves the audience to read the previous thrillers (see Last Light and Night Light). Readers ascertain that practical necessity is the mother of invention, as new ideas find practical uses in a society used to electricity and the luxuries that came with it. The great mystery enhances a fine tale, as Terri Blackstock slowly reveals each clue so that readers feel they have a chance of finding out who the shooter is before the lead duo identify the culprit.
