It began with six innocent children - and the terror they would bring to life ...

A human error, an unreported lab accident. Six pregnant women, six unknown children spreading a plague far deadlier than any doctors have ever seen before - a horror that splits lovers and friends, parents and children. The bravest and brightest men and women in medicine are fighting to stem the deadly tide. Their only hope for a cure lies with the precious few who have lived through the onslaught.
But the survivors of Taji's Syndrome have mysteriously disappeared - and the tasks facing the champions of humanity are far greater than anyone could have imagined ...

HARPER ROSS: He had seen it destroy his son and tear apart his family. Now he is obsessed with hunting down the carriers of the disease - and terrified by the answers he finds.

MAXIMILLIAN KLAUSEN: He was the old-fashioned doctor who had lost everyone he ever loved to the syndrome. Now he's fighting to find its cure - and he's running out of time.

IRENE CHANNING: She was the strong, beautiful woman who was the first known survivor of Taji's Syndrome - and the first to discover the bizarre and powerful changes it had left behind.

JEFF TAJI: He must discover the cause of the plague and stop it. But then he faces an even more baffling mystery . . . what is happening to the survivors? ...
