Will Kessler works a dead-end warehouse job in Tennessee, driving a forklift and unloading shipping containers.

Alone and weaponless, Will must fight through the undead horde to secure the building and answer one question: Is he truly alone?

Nathanial Kane had read it all before. It said they had centuries. The demons arrived in ten years. He'd been counted among the strongest. It had all been for nothing. He'd witnessed Earth's end. While dying, Nathan reviewed the only unique spell he'd ever found in the tower. He cast Rebirth.

The demon invaders would reach Earth in a few short years, so why did it seem like humans were determined to destroy themselves before the enemy arrived? World War III was going to happen. It was only a matter of when. Nathanial Kane had enough to worry about, but the death of a billion people wasn't something he could ignore. His allies were growing in number. Involving them would endanger them before they'd fully developed. The world would need their talents when the demons arrived. What can one man do? Was it possible for him to advance far enough and fast enough to make a difference?

In a single moment, everything changes. Hundreds of thousands of people suddenly collapse, leaving their friends and loved ones behind, terrified and confused. Moments later, the fallen rise and the survivors become the hunted. Follow three intertwining stories through the apocalypse.

It's been four days since hundreds of thousands fell, sending the world into a frantic tailspin. With the other survivors at his side, Will is trying to get to Knoxville, where he has reason to believe his parents are, but the changed world and its new race of rabid creatures is doing everything it can to stop him. Meanwhile, David has found refuge in the same hospital as Jessica and Melissa, having barely made it out of the warehouse alive.

With no firearms, the group find themselves in a race against time to arm themselves and get to the farm where they believe Dylan is, before David and Clint bring their fully-loaded forces to the hospital.

After narrowly avoiding tragedy, Will and the others hit the road and head east, looking to get Gabriel and Dylan home, while also hoping to seek refuge in the nation’s capital, Washington D.C.
