In the year 2055, mass murders have become a global plague. For decades society watched as the number of killing events increased from monthly to daily to hourly. The governments of the world have exhausted all their technologies and strategies to reduce the killings, but nothing has been effective. Public gatherings have become almost nonexistent. Fear has driven people to stay in their homes and use their virtual iPatch to attend sporting events, church, school, parties, and more. As a last-ditch attempt, the North American Security Department agrees to try a radically different approach. They bring in Sara Vogel, an astronaut who has covertly, quietly returned from a 23-year spaceflight. Oddly, Sara has not aged while in space. And oddly, she possesses a mysterious intuition on how to end the killings. As the mass killings continue to rise, there is one killer who stands out from the others, scheming to massacre thousands. But Sara knows that battling only one super-tech murderer won’t stop the global bloodshed. With the help of a few friends, she has a plan to stop all mass murderers everywhere.
