"8 Minutes to ... Digital Winter" by Mark Hitchcock & Alton Gansky

About the book:  Prophecy expert Mark Hitchcock and award-winning novelist Alton Gansky provide a suspenseful and fast-moving story of life after a massive cyber attack.

Twenty-two-year-old savant Donny Elton can’t tie his shoes, but his computer skills are unsurpassed. Egged on by a shadowy figure only he can see and hear, Donny creates an evolving computer virus that knocks out satellites, power grids, and communication systems. The world is thrown back into a lifestyle it hasn’t known for a hundred years. Surgeons find themselves operating without electricity. The military can’t use its computers…

This gripping story of darkness and heroism highlights prophetic themes and the very real danger of a cyber attack.

Review:  This is a story of a digital or cyber attack on the east coast of the United States.  Cars and all other forms of transportation come to a stand still.  People are hurt and killed during this breakdown. The one company that is in charge of finding out the problem is USCYBERCOM.  Eventually, the problem results in power outage for all of North America in only 8 minutes.  Only one household retained power.  This was the household of a Godly man and his family.  God uses this man's mentally challenged son to find the answer to fix the problem and get the person responsible for the chaos punished. 

But do they catch the person? This seems to be a continued story.

Suitable for grades 7 and up and entails mystery and puzzle solving as the reader delves into the story.
