After endless frivolous law suits, he fears he's put a target on his back and is being attacked by two sinister groups--Big Pharma and high-tech implant makers. Sarah Castle, a sex worker that he has had an ongoing relationship with, is hiding from the CIA and Italian Mob. They escape from New York City, but where to run from these powerful forces?

An unsuspecting man has become the nidus for the pulse as he lays dying in the ICU. Can they save him? Can our characters from the series of novels, The Jay Mountain Healing Series, save the village and stop world-wide destruction from the propagating pulse? Can they prevent another disaster? Can the village heal after this devastation?
