Exordium

About the Book

It’s circa 2040. The world is borne of intercontinental recession. A paroxysm of new viruses has taken over all biological and digital systems, and technology has run off its course. It came down to every man for himself. In a postapocalyptic setting, Avanzata, a country that seems to be making progressive recovery, is the home of Jason Dean, a seventeen-year-old boy who suspects that there is more to the story. From an intriguing newcomer to the disappearance of his father and the suspicious governmental activities in his school, little does he know that as he tries to piece together the links to all the strange occurrences in his hometown, his actions will trigger an event that will influence all of humanity—possibly for the worst.
