Publisher's summary
Keme Lopez needs to prepare his family for the apocalypse that he understands has already begun. Hesitation kills, and those who are slow to believe might not survive the first wave of anarchy. He must convince those he loves that this time the disaster is happening.
When all of the lower orbital satellites stop working, everyone is plunged into an apocalyptic world. Isolated in the small Texas town of Alpine, the Chihuahuan desert provides a natural buffer against a world gone mad. But some see the collapse as a chance to grab power, allies, and resources. Those people, left unchecked, could usher in the destruction of the place Keme calls home.
Whatever steps they take now, or fail to take, will determine their chances of survival as the world is covered in a Veil of Mystery.
Veil of Mystery is a short prequel to a new post-apocalyptic survival thriller series from USA Today Bestselling Author Vannetta Chapman. An exciting contribution to the genre of disaster fiction, this is a series that will leave you wondering what you could and couldn't live without...and what you'd be willing to do to survive.

"The Earth died in less than a minute. Maybe that's an exaggeration. It's not like the planet ceased to exist altogether. It just seemed like it. Cities were reduced to rubble. Millions of people died that day. I've since been told that 95 percent of the Earth's human population was wiped out. I don't know if that's true - I mean, who can know that for sure? It's not like we still have any of the technology that we once used to determine such things. But I do know that it was almost empty of people - live ones, that is..."

What started as a flu outbreak on a military base proves deadlier than Ebola. Sympatico Syndrome is unlike anything the world has ever seen. Victims' behavior is changing to accommodate the rapid spread of the virus. Former Navy epidemiologist Cole Evans is well aware of the rare, infectious diseases the military studies. He also knows the government's stance on sharing information with the public, so if the media has already learned about the disease, then it's too late to contain the outbreak.
