Deep in a converted Cold War-era bunker, a visionary scientist has devised a way to cure all the ills of humanity in a single stroke. No more war, pestilence, starvation, pollution.
The price will be high, but then, progress is never free.
Pendergast’s solution is entrusted to the extraordinary children he calls Loners—the ultimate fruit of his genius. They’re almost ready for release.
But not everyone agrees with his vision of a perfect future; Pendergast is forced to deal with an ordinary woman and an ordinary man who stand in his way.
He’ll also have to deal with something else. Down in the darkness of the bunker, the Loners have developed a vision of their own.
One they’re eager to share with the world.
First ebook edition of a 1991 hardcover original.
