Aftershock

State Of Emergency

In the third electrifying installment of Jack Douglas's six-part Quake, a series of aftershocks transform New York City from a high-risk disaster zone—into hell on earth . . .

It happened so fast. The earth trembling, buildings falling, civilization collapsing in a matter of moments. But once survivors began to emerge from the rubble, U.S. Attorney Nick Dykstra and FBI agent Hector Mendoza thought the worst was over. They thought wrong. A new wave of aftershocks is shaking the city to its very core. Nightmarish scenes of destruction await them as they journey north to find their loved ones. Armed gangs roam amidst the devastation like rats, Penn Station explodes, and a series of tremors nearly bring down all of Times Square. But Nick has other things to worry about. An accused terrorist has escaped his grasp. His only daughter has been targeted for revenge. And a catastrophic leak at the Indian Point Nuclear Plant could expose them all to a fate worse than death. . .
