    About this audiobook

    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.

      For $2.99 I was not expecting much but wow was I wrong. This is a must have for the Kindle and any science fiction reader.
    • 5/5
      Wonderful action story with characters added throughout the book. Story line kept you on the edge of your chair fearful for the continuing existence of the principle actors and suspicious of the intent of new characters as they are included in the plot. Great plot and transition between scenes. A real page turner - I missed sleep and some regular TV series to stick with this book. Only my sleep tore me away! Get a copy and enjoy - I'm still loving my Kindle!
