The sky changed first.
Thin white streaks began appearing high above the country, spreading silently across the atmosphere like cracks in glass. Most people ignored them.
Until the world started falling apart.
Within hours, communication collapses, cities erupt into violencе, and millions descend into paranoia, madness, and uncontrollable aggression. As governments impose martial law and military quarantine zones rise from the ashes of civilization, survivors quickly realize the horrifying truth: The infection is in the air.
Accountant Josh Chadwell narrowly escapes the first wave of chaos and finds an unlikely ally in Elena, a mysterious woman who seems strangely resistant to the spreading neurological plague.

But the deeper they run, the more unsettling the truth becomes. Because something beneath the earth is beginning to awaken. And the skies above humanity may not have been warning signs… They may have been signals.
