Pulse

What do you do when the whole world stops?
Andrea, Lexie and Sarah are just ordinary teens until a mysterious event shuts down all technology. In the dead of winter, there's no heat, no internet, no cell phones--not even a working car.
In this chilling Christian YA tale, most of the population doesn't survive. Pitting faith and grit against a world without power, the girls and their families must beat the odds. But can they find the strength to survive when society collapses and technology fails?

CHILLING DYSTOPIAN NOVEL Stories like this one get me very excited for today's young adult reader. DEENA PETERSON, Blogger, Reviewer
REALLY ENJOYED IT "Really enjoyed PULSE It's a unique twist to the post-apocalyptic genre. Burkard does a fantastic job depicting what life might be like for those that are prepared--and those that are anything but. (If you wonder why some people bother "prepping" read this book ) I also enjoyed the strong emphasis on faith and how focused on Christ some of the characters were." Chris Ray, PreparedChristian.NET
