Hell.Astronomer Marty Chittenden is the first to recognize the approaching doom--a discovery that makes him a marked man.Green Beret Jack Forrest knows the catastrophe is inevitable, and begins stockpiling an abandoned missile silo with supplies while gathering together a small community of men, women, and children he prays can survive the apocalypse.Then disaster strikes.

Soon the few remaining humans are transformed as well, becoming savage things--raping, pillaging, and devouring their own.And the time is approaching when Forrest and his people will have to leave their underground "Noah's Ark" to face a shattered world and the unspeakable terrors that dwell there--in desperate pursuit of one slim hope of survival . . . called Hawaii.
