In the fifth book in the Sideways Series, Dennis Olsen discovers precisely what his late wife meant when she came to him in a dream. She warned that, "a storm was coming."Our world balances precariously on a precipice with the constant need for everything to go exactly right. If one essential piece is removed, the dominoes begin to fall.Dennis, Shannon Hunter, Dennis' son, Bryan, and a small group of twelve are forced to run from two worldwide immanent disasters, the first, the escape of a weaponized virus from a secret Russian facility, and the second, an unseen invasion from a parallel dimension which causes the complete loss of power generated by electric utilities. The ensuing chaos brings down each country of our world, one by one, until there is little left but quiet. While the virus takes most who are exposed, some have a strong enough immune system to defeat the superbug, but not all those who survive are to be trusted.
