The enemy hides in plain sight: in our military, government, or just down the street. All that’s needed is authorization and they’ll unleash the monsters. An apocalypse fifty-plus years in the making.
On a man-made island, several miles out on the ice of the frozen Chukchi Sea, William has no clue anything out of the ordinary is about to happen. Besides, he’s too busy wallowing in the latest of life’s miseries. This time in the form of a demotion. He was fed up and depressed with drilling for oil anyway. He and his best friend since elementary school were going to move back home and find new lives to live. But then the power went out.
With no way of contacting the outside world, they must go for help. With William having been thrust back into his old leadership role, he has the unfortunate responsibility of having to make decisions that go far beyond balance sheets and profits: it’s life or death and kill or be killed. A savage new world awaits. William must rise above his old faults and vices if he wants to save his friends.
