The year is 2112, and it's the apocalypse exactly as expected: rivers receding, oceans rising, civilization crumbling.

But there are steep costs to disrupting the timeline, and taking down an icon isn't an easy task for an academic with no tactical training and only a wavering moral compass to guide him. As the horror of the task ahead unfolds and Tad's commitment is tested, his actions could trigger a devastating new fate for his friends and the future.
