At the turn of the 20th century, leaders with good intentions rush to implement a newly discovered and woefully misunderstood technology. Excitement drives their hands to clumsiness and a disaster of cosmic proportions is the result. In the time before the coastal exodus, the mosquito plagues and the marine deserts - long before the Great Storm - the catalyst for it all is the explosion in Bath County. The fire burns for days, leaking huge quantities of highly volatile particulate into the air. Drifting winds sweep the nation then the world, causing an atmospheric metamorphosis that transforms life on the planet until the end of recorded history. Chase and Avery, a young couple expecting their first child, learn the only true law comes from within.
