What would life look like after an Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP) robs Southern California of electricity, communications, and utilities while cars are starved of fuel? Ventura County, just north of Los Angeles, planned for a nuclear attack, but not a devastating EMP.

In the jail, deputy Mika Fischer is left in the dark as the lights suddenly go out and the cell doors won't lock. As inmates are released, the sheriff's office must face the realities of the collapse of the modern world. In the aftermath of the apocalypse, the deputies' honor is tested, but honor can't fill empty bellies and soon their ranks begin to thin.

After retreating to a well-prepared ranch with family and friends, deputies David Palmer and Sam Church realize that they cannot abandon the public. Soon they find that they have to make hard decisions that challenge the "latte and yoga pants" morality of the former world in a situation where ruthlessness is often the difference between life and death. With the sheriff trying to lead from a jail-turned-fortress, the survivors must rally together in order to defeat the conspiracy to conquer and plunder their home.

As violence and desperation increases and a mysterious enemy has cast its hungry eyes on the county, the deputies must leave behind their old ways and find a balance between being a warrior and a keeper of the peace. In the apocalyptic chaos, can the men and women of the Ventura County Sheriff's Office keep the threads of society together while everything falls apart, or do they descend into the same brutality as the villains?

Hard Favored Rage is based on the realities of emergency planning in the face of low probability, high impact events that highlight the shortcomings of a technology and infrastructure dependent nation.
