Leave the World Behind: A Novel

Amanda and Clay head out to a remote corner of Long Island expecting a vacation: a quiet reprieve from life in New York City, quality time with their teenage son and daughter, and a taste of the good life in the luxurious home they&;ve rented for the week. But a late-night knock on the door breaks the spell. Ruth and G. H. are an older couple&;it&;s their house, and they&;ve arrived in a panic. They bring the news that a sudden blackout has swept the city. But in this rural area&;with the TV and internet now down, and no cell phone service&;it&;s hard to know what to believe.
