From the back cover: "In this Mind-Bending Sci-Fi Thriller, the world ends in nuclear Armageddon. A man from Canada, Will Ritter, must traverse the devastated east coast to find his wife, Rachel, in Florida. However, he quickly discovers that nuclear war was the least of his concerns. Unexplainable events happen frequently, and gargantuan anomalies curse the landscape with their influence. Some events are caused by human science, others not. It suddenly seems as though the whole universe wants a slice of the remains of Earth. Yet, in a world facing horrors of unimaginable scale and threat, the most frightening are the people who remained but lost their sanity, and Will is no exception. His mind plays tricks on him and the line between madness and reality is eviscerated. Will must make a choice. Either to allow the horrible truth to be as real as it appears, or to sink into the more comfortable possibility of denial. To prove that the world doesn't have to change him." In this harrowing tale of humanity well past the brink of insanity, Canadian author J. F. Bloomfield takes the reader on a dangerous adventure through the corpse of a world that went horribly wrong. Starting off unprepared and deathly afraid, the main character, Will, just barely makes it underground with some hiking and camping gear and has to plan his journey south into the remnants of the coastal United States to find his wife, who was on a company sales trip to Florida when the bombs fell. What awaits him down the coast is nothing short of soul-rending. He pushes forward with speed and priority firstly because he wants to reach his wife quickly for the best chances of finding her alive. Secondly, however, because he doesn't know how much longer he can last. The freaks of nature and anomalies of physics take their toll and change both his body and his mind in disturbing ways. Who is he now? Will his wife recognize him anymore? He thinks that he might've wasted too much time getting banged up, knocked unconscious, and crying because it was all too much. Was she dead? Or did he still have a chance? How valuable is a few hours of sleep compared to the chance of your less-prepared loved one dying in that same time? It becomes obvious to him that every part of the country was hit by a different experimental bomb that pushed the boundaries of what was possible to predict. What else would he find? New York was a nightmare for the ages, D.C. was a chasm in the ground, the Carolinas were a lost cause. What would Rachel have had to survive in Florida? The author invites you to join him on this complex mission to discover who we really are when no concept goes unspoiled by the wildest impossibilities.
