Quote:
Five years ago you destroyed the world.
The world had it coming.
So you brought back a gift from the deep sea, a doomsday microbe to throw the planet on its side. Now DNA itself is on the way out. North America lies in ruins beneath the thumb of an omnipotent psychopath. Governments across the globe have fallen; warlords and suicide cults have risen from the ashes. All because five years ago, you had a score to settle.
But you've discovered something in the meantime: you destroyed the world on false pretenses.
For years now you've cowered among the mountains of the deep Atlantic. But you cannot hide forever. The consequences of past acts reach inexorably to the very bottom of the world — and suddenly, even here, there's no way to take back the body count.
One way or another, you're about to face the mess you made.
