In a remote Oregon biotech facility, John Cope merges from a coma. His identity lost, his memory vanished, he discovers that the world has been plunged into a permanent winter triggered by a meteorite impact. Most of the earth's temperate zones have been reduced to semi-arctic wastelands. One third of the United States is a lawless tundra wilderness.
Dr Mhairi Magnusson is a neuroscientist specialising in memory retrieval. Recruited to investigate the state of Cope's mind, she becomes convinced that he's being used as a human guinea pig. But when she unearths the shocking truth about Cope's identity, she's faced with an agonising choice. She can abandon him to those who condemn Cope for the terrible crimes of his past, or risk trying to save him as the blueprint for the future of humanity, their only weapon against the cold . . .
