In the wake of a cataclysmic solar event, the sunlight that once fed the human race has turned deadly, killing many of the Earth's inhabitants and transforming societal routines. When a killer emerges in the now nocturnal New York City, murdering his victims with sunlight, disillusioned solar engineer David "Bax" Baxter is called in to help stop this new threat. Bax teams up with police detective James Everly to protect the killer's next target, the daughter of a solar industrialist, but they soon learn there's more going on in the city's shadows. Throughout this kinetic first volume, Bax must face his own dark past, but can he rise to the occasion and stop this killer?"--page 4 of coverRated T+ / Teen plus

However, a crazed murderer's killing spree has revealed there are a few among them inmmune to the sun's rays. Cielo Brandt, sheltered heiress to the city's most powerful corporation, and her savior David Baxter have both survived the killer's attacks, and now they want answers. Determined to uncover the killer's mysterious origins, Cielo investigates the dark city's underground and the depths of her father's company. Meanwhile, Bax braves the postapocalyptic wasteland to hunt down another survivor resistant to the sunlight. As disturbing secrets are revealed and power struggles unfold, both Cielo and Bax must decide just where their allegiances lie."--page 4 of coverRated T+ / Teen plus
