Overview

It was the worst catastrophe the people of Earth had ever endured. In the summer of 2000, fragments of a rogue planet slammed into Earth. Billions were killed. The impact ravaged Earth, stopping its rotation. Now, twenty-one years later, the remnants of humanity face total extinction. They live a primitive existence in a land divided into perpetual daylight, eternal twilight, and endless night. From each of these worlds comes a threat that could destroy the fragile civilization that has survived....

A young man seeks his mother in the lawless terrors of the Darkzone, only to find horrors far worse than he could have imagined. A weary wanderer returns to a haven from his past, unwittingly leading a murderer to its unsuspecting people. And an impetuous explorer searches for treasures in a long-dead city, only to bring back an even more implacable killer: a plague called the Red Shadows...

Synopsis

Yvonne Navarro returns to the setting of her chilling catastrophic vision introduced in Final Impact, a near-future thriller in which the earth is decimated by meteorites. Not only did the tragedy kill millions and devastate cities and towns indiscriminately across the globe, it also caused the unthinkable: the sudden and cataclysmic halt of the earth's rotation. Now, some 20 years later, a new terror threatens the fragile remnants of humanity: a deadly and unrelenting plague. With Red Shadows, Navarro has created a taut and gripping sizzler that's as brutally contagious as her horrifying and sinister epidemic.
