The VALLEY

IN A DYING WORLD, SANCTUARY IS EVERYTHING!

Mike Barron, a warrior with a past steeped in violence and war, is searching for peace. All he wants is a place to hide from the world and allow his battered mind and body to heal.

But Mike can’t ignore his nature, and a violent confrontation draws him into the isolated community of Stanley Valley, high in the Colorado Rockies, just as a deadly pandemic begins to ravage the country around their mountain sanctuary.

As Mike stands on the brink of losing everything, he finds something he thought he’d lost forever, love, friendship, a sense of belonging, the things truly worth fighting and dying for.

Along with the strong-willed, self-assured Charlotte Hartford, Mayor of Stanley Falls, her fierce and courageous daughter, Skye, and Chief of Police, Connor Campion, the close-knit community of Stanley Falls must band together. To save their valley from the death and horror crashing against the bastions of their mountain enclave, they must first defend it.

With the wolves at the barricades coveting the sanctuary within, Mike and his people must fight for everything they have managed to save. But when your enemy lurks within, there are some wars in which there are no victors.

The Valley is the thrilling second novel by Simon Townsend. See HUNTER OF MEN in the Amazon Store for a ripping military thriller set on the rugged coast and wild interior of Southern Africa.
