For Diane Wallace and Charlie Bradon, the scars from the Charybdis incident run deep. Charlie's rehab is a daily battle with pain, a constant reminder of the bioweapon that almost killed them. Diane is tormented by the memory of a shot she never took at the monster behind it all. But the past refuses to stay buried.
A chilling report emerges from Nairobi, Kenya. The details are terrifyingly familiar: inhuman strength, targeted rage, and a sudden, systemic burnout. Reluctantly, Diane and Charlie are sent to investigate what they already fear: Charybdis is loose in the world.
Their investigation reveals a conspiracy far grander and more insidious than they could have imagined. This is no accident; it's the opening move in a terrifyingly precise plot to bring an entire nation to its knees. When a horrifying mist descends upon a packed stadium, plunging the city into a firestorm of death and chaos, they realize the plague was just the beginning.
As a UN-sanctioned "peacekeeping" force moves in to "restore order," Diane and Charlie must forge an alliance with local soldiers to fight back. Their only chance is a desperate assault on the skyscraper fortress of the man who started it all. To stop the architect of the apocalypse, they must walk into hell itself, but this time, taking a pound of flesh might not be enough.
