Ready and Waiting

They were no longer just farmers, no longer just survivors, they were warriors

When the power grid collapses across South Africa, life as people knew it vanishes overnight. Towns fall into ruin, farms burn, and neighbors disappear. Chaos reigns.
Ex-soldier Dawie de Lange wants only to protect his family and their ancestral farm. But as warbands rise and chants for the slaughter of every Boer echo across the land, survival demands more than one man's resolve. Rallying a fragile alliance of survivors-a deadly sniper, loyal war dogs, and even his estranged brother-Dawie leads a stand against overwhelming odds.

This is not just a battle for land. It is a fight for identity, legacy, and the future of their children-forced too soon into adulthood, carrying weapons instead of dreams.

Ready and Waiting is a relentless survival thriller, a tale of honor, resilience, and sacrifice in a world where hope itself is under siege. Outnumbered. Outgunned. Surrounded.

They're desperate.
They're determined.
They're ready and waiting.
