The world stands on the brink of darkness. A plasma storm will soon incinerate all electronics on the planet. Only a few days remain. Civilization is about to step into primal chaos. Engineer Elias Cross wanted just one thing: to save his family. But his secure underground bunker has turned into a blazing trap. Elite Corporate liquidators are already on the scientist's trail. The enemy seeks a monopoly on a new source of power. They want zero-point energy generators from the ancient Precursor Nodes. While Elias plays a grueling game with the syndicate leadership, his children forge through a frozen wasteland. They are guided by the steel Doppelganger. It is a synthetic copy of their father. The machine lacks emotion, compassion, or fear. To survive the snow, the teenagers must discard human weaknesses and embrace the harsh mechanics of survival. The old order is crumbling. The global communication network is living its final hours. Elias faces a simple choice. He can hand the keys to the new world over to the corporate elite. Or he can force the planet itself to deliver a fatal counterstrike.
