Blurb: "Bloated bodies, bat attacks, fire, famine. Dateline: Paris, 2052 ...an impressive landscape of horror"

-Virginia Kirkus Bookshop Service

This was to have been the happiest day of young Blanche Rouget's life. In Paris, the now-electronic city of love, Blanche had been about to make her debut as a star.

Then, abruptly, the Black Emperor of South America had told the world of the missiles already racing northward.

Panic had broken forth.

And then had come the real horror. A vast cloak of darkness had descended over the earth. And Blanche was hurled into a world gone mad in its death-throes.
