A Catch in Time

the long version

In one moment a global blackout occurs, and six billion humans become unconscious. During a brief yet seemingly eternal three-minute sequence, a series of catastrophic events occurs, and minds collide with truths hidden beyond the physical realm. With the reawakening comes a drastically and horrifically altered world—populations decimated and social order gutted. No one seems to remember the truth that has been revealed or that this discovery could destroy the human race—except Laura. Though even she has no knowledge of why the postblackout births are mutations or what is so wrong with some of the survivors.
