Description
'Fracture Point' deals with the consequences of our dependence on electricity in general and automated systems in particular. It's set in a world suddenly finding itself without electricity or electronic communications. The title comes from a simple question. How extensive would the damage, in this case caused by a solar flare, have to be before the decline continued, faster than the infrastructure could be repaired.

Ask most people, and they'll say that if such a disaster occurred then they could hunt or grow crops. They seem to think that food is the biggest concern but it's not. Without pumping stations how would cities get enough water and deal with sewage.

David is a petty criminal with a contempt for authority. Suddenly it becomes an asset as he tries to lead his friends to safety, always just one step ahead of the disaster.
