Blurb: “EARTH'S FIRST SPACESHIP HAS RETURNED WITH THE DEATH OF THE ENTIRE PLANET AS ITS CARGO.
The one crew member left alive is infected with a terrifying alien plague and, fight it as he may, he is compelled by that plague to go out and infect others.
And so, in the desert of the American Southwest, a colony is growing of people who are not quite human-and who soon will be unstoppable.
