MIMOŘÁDNÁ ZPRÁVA: Nad Washingtonem vybuchla atomová bomba. Jon Keller si toto oznámení přečte u snídaně na telefonu. Následují další oznámení a zprávy, že svět pustoší jaderná válka. Jeho manželka a dvě malé dcery jsou doma v Americe, zatímco on je služebně na konferenci ve Švýcarsku. V hotelu s temnou minulostí, obklopeném hlubokými lesy daleko od nejbližšího města. Spolu s dvacítkou dalších hostů se Jon snaží udržovat aspoň nějaké zdání civilizace. Pak se ale jednoho dne v hotelu najde mrtvá holčička. Někdo v hotelu je vrah. Zásoby se tenčí, napětí narůstá a dostavuje se paranoia. Vyšetřování smrti holčičky se pro Jona stane posedlostí i způsobem, jak neztratit vlastní lidskost. Jak daleko je ochoten ve jménu spravedlnosti zajít? V jakou spravedlnost vůbec může v postapokalyptickém světě doufat? A co když vrah nechce být nalezen?

They were waiting for life to get started. Then the world began to end. At a New York City wedding, on a sweltering summer night, four people are trying to be happy. Yun has everything he ever wanted, but somehow it's never enough. Emory is finally making her mark, but feels the shame more than the success. Andrew is trying to be honest, but has lied to himself his whole life. Fin can't resist falling in love, but can't help wrecking it all either. And then the world begins to end. The four of them watch as one of the wedding guests sits down and refuses to get back up. Soon it's happening across the world. Is it a choice or an illness? Because how can anyone be happy in a world where the only choice is to feel everything - or nothing at all?
