2017 is nearing a close, and it seems as if the world is about to end. Dogs are howling in the streets, birds are dropping from the sky, and all of a sudden the power goes out. Everywhere. In everything. Except for a few people, who seem to have prepared for this. And who clearly have an agenda all their own.
Neil Anapa is an NYC subway electrician. When someone blows up an army base, and the city's power goes out, he finds himself dragged into a world of conspiracy and danger. Sandra Keane, his ex-girlfriend, seems to know something about what's going on, judging from her strange phone messages, but she has problems of her own. And then there's Lindsay Fonacia, a researcher who has just landed an intriguing new project - one that might yield age-old answers to the very calamities they're facing, and to the plot Neil has become wrapped up in.
Can they figure out what's going on and save the world - and themselves - from an ancient ritual and the people who seem determined to carry it out at any cost?
