The Warning




In the wake of disaster, nothing in Mount Hope is the same. And it's up to a young man and woman to put a stop to the strange happenings in their town before the danger they pose becomes fatal for them all.

Two roads lead to Mount Hope. None leads out.

Following a freak nuclear power-plant explosion, the small southern town was evacuated. Now, after a year in isolation, some residents are finally allowed to return home.

Best friends Maggie and Jordan quickly discover that Mount Hope is not as it was before. The roads leading out of town are blocked, phone networks and the Internet are cut off, and the power plant remains on military lockdown.

Something is horribly wrong, and their determination to uncover the truth soon has Maggie and Jordan in the crosshairs of a force more sinister than any they could have imagined.
