The apocalypse called for an action hero. It got a disabled romance writer who accidentally became the weird little Librarian of the End of the World.
When a coordinated cyberattack takes down the power grid, Evangeline Goodnight is trapped on the thirteenth floor of her high-rise condo with her cat, her books, and a telescope. She also has a guilty secret: a stockpile she created to keep her anxiety manageable.
Evie isn't anyone's idea of an action hero. She writes successful supernatural romance novels while navigating chronic illness, limited mobility, unreliable energy, panic attacks, and a body that does not negotiate.
But as the city outside her windows descends into violence, Evie's tower becomes more than a refuge. It becomes a vantage point. Through her telescope and radio, she watches, listens, gathers information, and becomes part of a fragile network of survivors trying to hold on to one another in a world where ordinary rules have vanished.
Darkly funny, tense, and emotionally grounded, The Tower is post-collapse suspense for anyone who has ever wondered whether they could still be useful when strength is complicated, safety is temporary, and survival means adapting to the body you actually have.
