It was both predictable and inevitable.
The gates they thought would protect them would fall.
Some held out hope for the government to regain control.
For four families, a decision had to be made.

Should we stay or should we go ... beyond the gates?

International bestselling author, Bobby Akart, one of America's favorite storytellers, delivers up-all-night thrillers to nearly two million readers in 245 countries and territories worldwide.

"Akart is one of those very rare authors who makes things so visceral, so real, that you experience what he writes."

With remarkable speed and intensity, the fabric of society had come unraveled. Neighbor fought neighbor despite the threats lurking just beyond the gates protecting their enclave. Behind the gates, a handful of vocal of residents, those running the neighborhood's homeowner's association, claimed the ultimate authority over their neighbors. The rule of law, as well as common decency, was cast aside. Tensions boiled over with devastating results.

"You are there. Feeling what they feel. Anger, joy, love, mourning. You feel it all. Not everyone can write a book like this. It takes a special writer to make you feel a book."

Could the neighborhood weather the coming storm? Or, were they so blinded by internal squabbling that they ignored the signs of danger lurking beyond the gates? A difficult decision had to be made by Dean Winchester and his group. One that would change their lives forever.

"Akart's fiction becomes reality far too often. Behind the Gates is a cautionary tale of what's to come in our nation."

With seventy novels published worldwide, Bobby Akart delivers intense, up-all-night thrillers that have you whispering just one more chapter.
