Synopsis

"A masterwork of character and plot. I was enthralled with the countdown from the start!" - James Wintle - Bestselling (UK) author

True-crime writer Ray Shannon has endured a terrible tragedy—the violent death of his wife. So the offer of a teaching job in a peaceful Vermont town sounds ideal for him and his son Mark.

But his arrival coincides with a series of disturbing events that soon unfold into horrors of apocalyptic proportions.

An air-borne flesh-eating plague centered in Boston threatens the entire planet. An Islamic terrorist is poised to unleash nuclear devastation in twenty major cities of the world. And Jared Riggs, a charismatic preacher with a sinister agenda, rises meteorically to national prominence. When shape-shifting monsters begin to appear throughout the land, it is clear that the End Times have arrived.

Against this backdrop, and with the help of a beautiful woman whose interest in New Age healing is balanced by a doctorate in quantum physics, Shannon tries to save himself and his loved ones while coping with the realization that he has unknowingly become one of the primary threads in a cosmic tapestry of evil.
