What happens when the lights go out… and never come back on? Episode 4: Hunting Sarah and her group are through the worst of it - or so they think. Holed up in an abandoned barn on the edge of enemy territory, with a Russian forward operating base glowing on the horizon, they try to rest before the most dangerous move of their lives. But the night has other plans. When a ruthless gang of post-collapse scavengers takes them by surprise, the group finds itself outgunned, at the mercy of a scarred and unpredictable leader who takes what she wants - and buries what she can't use. Survival comes down to Sarah's nerve, Marcus's timing, and a single whispered word. And when the smoke clears, the cost is counted in more ways than one. Unlike traditional novels, Blackout Nation is a serialized thriller, releasing a new episode every second Monday. Each episode builds on the last, delivering nonstop tension, high-stakes action, and shocking twists. Follow along as the world unravels, and survival becomes the only rule.
