Rage of the Chimpanzees. EMP Blackout

Book Description When the grid goes down, the cages open. A devastating derecho has just wiped out the power grid in the isolated mountain town of Mercy Gap. But the blackout isn't the true nightmare. It's what the storm unleashed. Hidden on Blackout Ridge, an illegal menagerie of captive, ferocious chimpanzees has broken free. Driven by rage, hunger, and years of brutal confinement, these apex predators are descending on the helpless town below.
Trapped in the dark, a small group of survivors must rely on the wits of a seasoned lineworker and her teenage brother to navigate flooded streets, downed wires, and a relentless hunt. There is no rescue coming. The radios are dead. The roads are blocked. And the troop is learning how to hunt humans. Rage of the Chimpanzees is a lightning-paced, visceral survival thriller where the tension never drops and the monsters are brutally real.
