FALSE DAWN

On this brutal and wasted world the only law is survival -- at any cost.

Years of neglect and man-made disasters had taken their toll on the Earth's delicate ecological balance. In an effort to help mankind survive the winter that was sure to come, scientists introduced viral mutations into the population. Unfortunately, the rate of mutation couldn't be controlled ... and neither could the types.

But not all the mutations are monsters, and not all the monsters are genetic freaks. Anarchy reigns as armed packs of outlaws called Pirates roam the countryside, pillaging settlements and slaughtering those the earth has spared.

Thea had eluded the packs for years by trusting no one. Not even the ex-Pirate Evan, to whom she finds herself drawn. But as these two desperate people travel together, they learn there is more to life than mere survival. There is acceptance and trust ... and possible even love.

False Dawn is a compelling novel of hope in a world gone mad.
