The war that has torn the human race apart is finally nearing its end. With most towns and cities now uninhabitable, and with the country in the grip of a nuclear winter, both Hater and Unchanged alike struggle to survive. Hundreds of Hater fighters have settled in a relatively undamaged town under the command of Hinchcliffe - a ruthless tyrant who'll stop at nothing to consolidate his position at the top of this new world order. Your place in this fledgling society is decided by how long and how hard you're prepared to fight, but Danny McCoyne is the exception to the rule. McCoyne's ability to hold the Hate and hunt out the remaining Unchanged has given him a unique position in Hinchcliffe's army. But as the enemy's numbers reduce, so the pressure on McCoyne increases until he finds himself at the very center of a pivotal confrontation, the outcome of which will have repercussions on the future of everyone still alive.
