A chillingly dark and epic tale of good and evil in the tradition of Stephen King's The Stand. — Los Angeles may be used to rolling blackouts, but the city of angels was not ready for what overcame them. It came in two waves. The first started with complete power outages that not only knocked out utilities, but also rendered batteries useless. The second wave was more of a spiritual power outage, that tore through the hearts and souls of the people, allowing for the propensities toward violence become the norm in most. The bizarre blackouts, spreading across the country in a spiraling fashion have the American people fearing the worst. The military think it is a biological war that has been initiated by an unknown enemy. Some think it is the time of the Apocalypse. There is a gathering of people, the evil with the evil, the good with the good, and at times the good, unsuspecting, with evil.
