Fatal Harvest

About the Book

Imagine a world without electricity, transportation, supermarkets, telephones or any of the other amenities we are accustomed to in the early twenty-first century. After the world-wide epidemics of  2015 and 2016, this is what life is like in the Pacific northwest. There are no hospitals, governments or emergency services of any kind. Civilization  has broken down and the survivors are on their own.

Celeste Colbert is thirteen at the time of the first outbreak, living with her family in Vancouver. She experiences the loss of family members and friends, schools closing and orderly life in the city descending into anarchy. With a close-knit group of family and friends, Celeste leaves the city for a remote village in the hope they will be safe there to continue their struggle for survival. But the small band encounter more calamities and hardship before a state of relative stability is restored.

This account follows Celeste through thirteen years, as she grows to maturity in a much different world.
