Great minds can change the world...or leave it in ruins.
When tech prodigy Jade Veverka creates a program to communicate with her autistic sister, she's tapped by a startup to explore the potential applications of her technology. But Jade quickly begins to notice some strange things about the small Kansas town just beyond the company's campus--why are there no children anywhere to be seen, and for that matter, anyone over the age of forty? Why do all of the people living here act uncomfortable and jumpy?
On the way home one night, Jade and her co-worker are run off the road, and their lab and living spaces are suddenly overrun with armed guards, purportedly for their safety. Confined to the compound and questioning what her employers might be hiding from her, Jade fears she's losing control not only of her invention, but of her very life. It soon becomes clear that the threat reaches far beyond Jade and her family, and the real danger is much closer than she'd ever imagined.
End of the Road eBook LS Hawker
Ms. Hawker has done it again! Another fascinating tale told with many twists and turns. Her grasp of modern day technology, film, pop culture, and the human psyche is unnerving. End of the Road will take you on a startling journey through some of the scariest realities we face in 2017 as well as giving you insight into the world of autism and its effects on the family system. If you enjoy a thriller with true depth, or if you are in anyway a part of or involved with "nerd culture." this book will be a real treat for you. But even if you don't know every scene from Star Trek or Buffy the Vampire Slayer, you will still enjoy the depth of the story and the development of the characters.In all three of her novels, Hawker has proven herself to be a great architect of perfectly timed twists and turns so that the reader closes the last page feeling like they just rode one of the greatest American coasters - a bit winded, heart pounding, but thrilled by the ride and ready to go again and again. The beginning of the tale is like being pulled up the first big hill of a coaster, link by link, knowing that a big drop is coming, full of anticipation, not really knowing when you will go over the top and be caught up in the thrilling speed of the fall. And then you are off and you better clear your day because you won't be able to get off the ride until you pull into the station. I truly can't wait to see what this author will bring to us next.

End of the Road eBook LS Hawker Reviews
There are so many things to love about this book.
1) LS Hawker is incredibly talented. The voice of Jade, her main character, is the perfect combination of insecure and brave.
2) The characters are to die for. Jade's autistic sister, Clem, is my favorite. She is such a unique color on the spectrum, and her quirks make me beam. And Olivia is already my close friend, even though she's imaginary. She's non-PC but everything good.
3) The author describes rural America so beautifully. The diagonal parking on Main Street. The local restaurant that's so good that she spots two out-of-county cars in front of it, because OF COURSE, she has the starting plate numbers' locations memorized. 😍. And then there's the whole, "know-where-you're-going-by-looking-for-landmarks-like-trees thing".
And also this
"Don't mess with Autisma, man. Don't mess with my family."
Now excuse me while I savor the read, and do yourself a favor and read it, too.

😍
End of the Road was a slow burn, the groundwork went on for close to half the book. Once we hit full speed, I was willing to go the distance, but until then, I almost forced myself to keep going. The plot was very...on the nose, in regards to the dangers of what can be accomplished when technology gets into the wrong hands. I’ll admit, this book further stoked my deep-seated fears regarding the dangers of the wrong people in power. It was published in January 2017, but almost seems prophetic.
For readers looking for a high-tech suspenseful read, End of the Road is a good bet. As for me, I’m headed off to make my tin foil hat.
In End Of The Road, author L.S. Hawker weaves another riveting thriller that is full of intrigue, action, drama, suspense, secrets, and murder.
The author takes the reader on a wild roller coaster ride as tech researcher / programmer Jade Veverka tries to protect and maintain control of her invention, a computer program that communicates with Autistic people, but secretive dealings by her employers, and a strangeness about the surrounding small Kansas town, has Jade realizing that things aren't what they seem, and danger lurks around every corner.
As the reader follows Jade's dilemma, the multitude of suspenseful plot twists and turns will give them goosebumps, and keep them sitting on the edge of their seats.
End Of The Road is a fascinating thriller that you won't be able to put down, it will leave you wanting more!
Another single-sitting read from L.S. Hawker. With a diverse and unique take on the potential apocalyptic genre, L.S. Hawker kept my on the edge of my seat with every word. Featuring diverse characters, not to mention the in depth view and understanding of Autism portrayed through Clementine, this book was structured to leave the reader unsure of what was coming next. I particularly enjoyed the peppering of pop culture references, (especially about Dean's baby, being a Supernatural fan myself) that made this book a fantastic read for all age groups and backgrounds. I simply could not put this (digital) book down.
Kudos!
