Zero Hour: El Paso

When the border becomes the front line.
Within hours of Zero Hour—the coordinated electromagnetic-pulse and nuclear strike that shattered civilization—the southern border collapses. Powerless, cut off, and surrounded by chaos, ICE agent Carlos Diaz and FBI agent Jennifer Forbes fight to hold what remains of El Paso as sleeper cells strike and militias rise.
Their radios are dead. The chain of command is gone. Every street becomes a line of defense and every decision a gamble between survival and duty. When refugees flood the ruins and old loyalties fracture, Diaz and Forbes must decide whether to save the innocent or secure their own perimeter.
In a city without power, law, or mercy, enemies and allies blur. Each hour brings new betrayals, new choices, and the haunting question of what it means to protect a nation that no longer exists.
Zero Hour: El Paso is Book 1 of the Mayday 2026 Chronicles—a near-future survival saga that begins where civilization ends.
