Synopsis

In a world made nearly perfect by man's enlightened progress, an ancient, hungry apocalypse slithers from the shadows and onto the clean, brightly lit streets.

Though few realize anything is wrong, it's already too late: too late for the authorities to face this new threat, for science to discover a cure, for the world's warriors to gear up to fight. It is humanity's swan song, and the fat lady is on the stage and clearing her throat.

Now it's up to five damaged strangers: a homicide detective, a lonely nurse, a college student, his insecure girlfriend, and a methodical killer with the heart of a child. Now it is the perfect society's misfits who must piece together the mystery and find the courage to stand together against impossible odds.

Sometimes destiny falls unexpected into the most broken lives, like a careless brick fallen out of the clear black sky.

Goodreads review by Karen on February 23, 2011

This book is a great idea, unpolished. The best part of this novel is the witty banter... In fact I would run out and buy any TV show or video game written by this author. Then there's the fact this novel must have been written by a nerd. There are no qualms about references to LotR, Harry Potter, B......more

Goodreads review by Martha on October 17, 2019

I really wanted to give this a higher rating because I wanted to love it. This author really knows how to turn a snarky phrase. The reason I can't give it higher marks is mostly personal preference. I am not a huge fan of excessive action sequences, and this book is 90% action. It was also tough to......more
