Ninety years ago, Earth was consumed—and irrevocably transformed—by a cloud of alien nanites known as the Mist, bestowing humanity with uncanny abilities and enhancing technology far beyond early twenty-first century science.

And alien overlords await the opportunity to swoop in and exploit what remains of Earth and its people for all their worth.

She forsakes her own safety to go in search of the killer. Luc decides to go with her; otherwise she'll be dead before she's past the security gate. But what awaits her outside is more unbelievable than she ever imagined.

But when a woman in distress, chased by marauders, seeks asylum, Marcus has a decision to make.

Not unless you're willing to think outside the box!
