Set in a world parallel to our own amid a shaken society. A fateful night comes in December, Detectives Gabriele Rossi and Oliver Clinton call in a 273D to the Vargas family. Little do they know, all their lives will forever change in the festering chaos. While all around them collapses in on itself with Chrysler Islanders barely enduring, communications becoming lost and desperations burn high, the strange genesis of all this turmoil-the Black Matter substance-is unlike anything any have seen before. It can either be one's healing grace, or metamorphic doom. In the passing decade drenched in blood, a new form of power rose with collisions of every scale, but Chrysler Island had become barren of human life on the surface... When in peril of becoming devoured-or fated to anguish worse than death-by the berserk creatures that plague the ghost city, what purpose would one have in this seemingly senseless existence? Can the world go back to the way it was if possible? Should it when the freedom in the lawlessness is ecstatic? And as life had drifted on and pass him by in his aimless state, the young Rossi may just find the push he never knew he needed. The world has forever changed in ways most don't see, but he and the ones he's come upon quickly learn that maybe it's best to stay ignorant.
A GRITTY, RELENTLESS AND MACABRE SURVIVAL TALE SET IN A RAW REALITY IN HARSH TIMES WHERE INNOCENCE DOESN'T LAST . . .
Detective Gabriele Rossi is at his wit's end-he's been on this path for quite some time. Years in the CIPD couldn't have prepared him for a fateful night of reckoning. He and alongside the millions of other Chrysler Islanders are dealt an unprecedented invasion-a lethal blow to the United States' system by feral beasts.
The remnants of the historical decimation must endure the fight of their lives-all the while preserving their families and themselves. In the wake of a truth none foresaw, will the violence, loss and feeling of helplessness engulf the rest?
