The Height of Darkness - Paperback

by Jess Renae Sherer (Author)

Jenna Covington strives for piety and perfection, so when a cyberattack cripples the U.S. power grid, she eagerly shelters a stranger - a mother in need with two small children.
As the large and noisy Covington clan gathers at the family cabin, sporadic broadcasts urge citizens to shelter in place. Feeling safe in their refuge, secluded amid the forested slopes of the Blue Ridge Mountains, the family confronts unexpected choices that test their resilience and faith. And when the stranger they welcomed behaves with increasingly erratic outbursts directed at her two young sons, Jenna agonizes between moral obligation and familial preservation as her own memories of abuse begin to resurface.
As hours turn into days, Jenna finds herself in a dark web of memories, secrets, and lies, while the family's reserves dwindle and the world outside crumbles into chaos. Will her faith sustain her through the darkest times?
A fast-paced psychological thriller, The Height of Darkness is a heart-wrenching tale of betrayal, redemption, and the unbreakable bonds of family as Jenna embarks on a harrowing journey to assert her own voice and stand up against the shadows that threaten to engulf her world.
