Publisher's Synopsis
A tale that follows not only a globe spanning, apocalyptic invasion of Earth, but the interactions between survivors when one among them is progressively being devoured by his own demons. Widower Jason Wolfe is a cop in Petaluma, a small town in the forested hills north of San Francisco, and who is considering turning in his badge for the sake of Emmie, his young daughter. But then his dilemma expands a hundred-fold when invaders from the stars decimate Earth's civilizations in a raging holocaust. Besides destroying a large majority of humanity, why did the invaders come? Is it for colonization-or something else? Will they eventually leave-or stay forever? Whether they go or stay, how can Jason even survive, let alone protect his daughter in the chaos that engulfs them? And what are the strange, new abilities beginning to emerge among the survivors?
