All attempts stop the unfettered growth have failed, as not only is it deadly to the touch, but fire causes it to release plumes of toxic chemicals. As the Cole family fights to survive in their stranded condition, Wayne, Scott and Makayla flee for safety, while Bryan finds himself suddenly forced to care for a 15-year-old survivor.

From the #1 best-selling and celebrated post-apocalyptic author Mike Kraus, writing with Barry Napier, comes a new enthralling tale of devastation, survival, and the endurance of the human spirit like no one else can.

It's been hailed as a groundbreaking new weed killer - a true revolution for farming and invasive plant control techniques. When strange deaths start spreading around the country like wildfire, it becomes apparent that this miracle chemical is actually a nightmare that threatens the lives of every single person on the planet.

On a small farm in rural Virginia, a string of animal deaths leads to the discovery of a horror beyond imagining. It is inescapable, unavoidable and impossible to combat, and everyone who comes close to it risks certain death. Worst of all - it's spreading.

In the Amazon rain forest, secret testing by the chemical's creator reveals its true effects, both on plant and animal life. Horrified by what he's created, he faces an uphill battle to reveal the truth as the world begins to crumble around him.

A mother - separated from her husband and child and trapped in the bottom of a bottle - chooses to fight the encroaching shadows, and in doing so brings light to the darkness. Her decisions, and those of other survivors of this horrific event, will be the only thing that stands between humanity and total annihilation.
