A pandemic, worldwide darkness. And then her boyfriend disappeared. It had been a rough morning, even by her standards.
Get ready for a thrilling ride! A pandemic, worldwide darkness. And then her boyfriend disappeared...Dive Into the Darkness...Maybe she should apologize... But he was gone.
Kimber Nilsen is a nurse during the worldwide pandemic, Nogoes, and handles the crisis with the same efficiency as any other day.
Then darkness falls in the middle of a hot July.
Kimber is afraid of the dark, so when her boyfriend, Jordan Lange, disappears, she's troubled by his last text: we need to talk. Plagued with fear and doubt, unspoken mysteries haunt and threaten to tear her apart.
The quest to find Jordan takes her deep into a world of good and evil, distorted reality, and Kimber finds out the darkness brings out dangerous ideas and hive-minded reality.
And as she faces the most difficult challenge yet, triumph might mean simply getting out alive.
Dive Into the Darkness...
Maybe she should apologize. Not that she did anything wrong, but he had seemed upset. She made her way to the bedroom, stopping abruptly.
The door was open; the light was on.
“Jordan?”
The bed was empty.
Kimber checked the master bath. “Jordan? You in here?” she called, retracing her steps, and continued her search throughout the quiet house.
No answer.
He couldn’t have gone far. She pulled out her phone.
5:20.
She tried calling his number. It went straight to voicemail.
She ended the call.
Kimber headed to the back door, slipping into the extravagant three-stall garage. His pickup was in the first parking spot closest to the door. The Mustang was in the far stall, and the Harley Road King was in its place in the middle.
Jordan said he was going to lie down. Maybe he went to check on the cattle. She headed to the back door. No sign of him. A shiver ran up her spine. Where had he gone?
There must be a logical explanation.
Kimber searched the front entrance and found his work boots. The tips of her ears burned. She tucked her phone in her pocket and went back inside, locking the door to the garage.
When she found him, he was going to be in big trouble.
Pour a cup of hot chocolate, settle in, and lose yourself in a darkness that lingers long after the lights go out...

I haven't sat down and read a book for over 20 years and now am hooked. Started with The Dark Days and just finished The Darker Days. The way Hazel writes brings you into the story. I'm from ND and can completely relate to these books. If you like suspense with a twist you will love these books. Highly recommend. Can't wait to read them all.

I had the privilege of reading The Dark Days years ago, and it quickly became one of the best books I’d read in ages. I met Hazel Mattice at a conference and was lucky enough to read The Dark Days (Book 1) before its official release. From the very first page, I was completely enthralled.
To say I was excited for Book 2 would be an understatement—and Darker Days did not disappoint. Mattice immerses us once again in her haunting, beautifully constructed world, blending raw emotion, tension, and high stakes in equal measure. Her characters feel heartbreakingly real, her prose cuts deep, and the sense of dread and wonder she evokes is masterful.
Darker Days takes everything that made the first book unforgettable and raises the stakes even higher. It’s a gripping, emotional journey through light and shadow—a story that lingers long after you’ve turned the final page. Hazel Mattice is a storyteller who understands not only the darkness of the world but the strength it takes to survive it.
Highly recommend for readers who crave emotionally rich, character-driven apocalypse fiction with a touch of the uncanny.
