Abstract:
When Alan Walker discovers that his technological breakthrough is the checkmate in the high stakes game of global chess, he finds himself in a world he no longer recognizes. As the directors of the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the leader of United Europe with the Papacy vie for world domination in the final days, the world is thrust into chaos as the greatest threat to mankind is unleashed. When the orchestrated global computer shutdown occurs at the stroke of midnight, December 31, 2000, millions of people mysteriously disappear without a trace. The end of the age has arrived.
