In the mid-23rd century, Darwin, Australia, stands as the last human city on Earth.

Captains Skyler Luiken and Gloria Tsandi (and their respective crews) have smashed through the deadly Swarm Blockade but now find themselves scattered around the planet Carthage and the space stations she holds in her orbit. Their mission is now twofold: destroy the military compounds of a race of nefarious alien overlords and find a way back home to Earth. Standing in their way are a race of horrifying, technologically advanced aliens armed with incredible weapons.

Im abschließenden Teil der "Die Letzten der Erde"-Trilogie beginnt für die Helden ein Wettlauf gegen die Zeit: Während Skyler und Tania überall auf dem Globus außerirdische Artefakte suchen, die helfen könnten, die globale Seuche einzudämmen, die die Menschheit auszurotten droht, steht die Rückkehr der rätselhaften "Erbauer" kurz bevor. In der afrikanischen Wüste stößt Skyler auf neue Relikte der fremden Zivilisation - und auf erbitterten Widerstand durch die Infizierten. Für alle Beteiligten wird eine Frage immer drängender: Wer sind die Erbauer wirklich und was wollen sie mit der Erde?
