This is an alternate cover edition for B077RLKDP4
After the planet has been devastated by natural disaster and war, an ex-military pilot has retreated to the fringes of civilization in order to escape his past, and the friend who wants to kill him. Andy Matteo and his wife, Piper, along with their longtime friend, Tuck, are living in Lakeland and operating a low-key cargo business, catering to the sparse and isolated inhabitants of the rugged country, while keeping a watchful eye out for any military agents who may have tracked them down, and Bash, the past teammate with a score to settle.
After being coerced into an unusual job, the trio find themselves involved in a mission full of surprises, both astonishing and unsettling, which will, unbeknownst to them, ultimately determine the fate of humanity.
Follow the group of unlikely heroes as they witness unimaginable scientific miracles, paradigm shifting technological breakthroughs, and the evil obtainable only by unquestioned power and control.
On their journey throughout North America and China, the struggling group is aided by many, including the extremely wealthy Braxton family, the Mexican Mafia, and the Xanwiti, a mysterious group of outcasts who are being hunted by the Chinese government. Along the way they discover the truth: That the planet is rapidly deteriorating, and the human species has no choice but to quickly adapt or perish, and one man has decided that the usual bickering between political parties, and countries, has to end, and hard decisions need to be made without hesitation. Unfortunately, that one man is the only person with enough influence and power to do it, but he lost his own humanity long ago .
