Description

A terrible plague threatens all within the ancient Citadel of Ruin and a mysterious hacker accesses NASA's systems - compromising the deep space search for the origins of the universe - the fate of the entire world is imperilled. meanwhile strange phenomenon is occurring in the Syrian Desert. American journalist Liv Adamsen feels oddly at home in the oasis growing around her, but the desert is a hostile land, and those who seek her out draw ever closer. Charity worker Gabriel Mann is the only one Liv can trust, but he wanders the desert in search of his final resting place, desperate to ensure that the disease that grips him can harm no other. Nature itself is out of kilter - a prophecy as old as Creation is unfolding, but there are those who will do anything to stop it
