When the world goes dark, a family's fight for survival begins.

After a devastating global cyber attack destroys the planet's power infrastructure, life as we know it vanishes overnight. Cities fall silent. Technology becomes useless. The electricity that powered the modern world disappears, taking law, order, and safety with it.

In the heart of New Zealand, a family of five finds themselves cut off, hunted, and on the run. Grandfather Lee Morrison, a gruff but wise man, ex military, shaped by another era, joins his daughter Sarah, her husband Jack, and their two children, sixteen-year-old Emma and twelve-year-old Luke, as they flee the chaos erupting in their once-peaceful community.

Pursued by a desperate and dangerous mob, they must navigate a world plunged into anarchy, relying only on instinct, resilience, and the survival skills passed down through generations. Each day is a fight, to stay warm, to stay together, and to stay human.

As their journey stretches across a shattered New Zealand landscape, they face betrayal, heartbreak, and impossible choices. But amid the darkness, glimmers of hope remain: the fierce bond of family, acts of unexpected kindness, and the enduring power of love.

Grid Down is a gripping dystopian drama packed with suspense, heart-pounding action, and emotional depth. It's a story of loss and endurance, but also of courage, connection, young love and what truly matters when everything else is gone.

If you believe in family, fight, and the fragile hope that can survive even in a broken world, Grid Down will stay with you long after the final page.
