The world ended on an August Sunday, in a rain of stones from the sky, like something out of Revelations. Marin Astoris saw the end of the world well before it happened, and her visions of the future become a guiding force for a small knot of survivors at her midwestern university.In the weeks after the end of the world, that knot of thirty students and one professor begin to awaken to supernatural gifts they didn't expect. These newfound talents may mean the difference between life and death--for them and the rest of humanity.Thom Ambrose loves Marin with every fiber of his being, but he can't accept the prophetic gift they share. If he does, he'll lose the only thing that's important to him: her. His ignorance comes at a price.Is it a price he and his friends can afford to pay?
