Nightingale

Twenty years in the future and four years after a mysterious infection sweeps across the human population, ninety-five percent of people are turned into night-dwelling creatures known as Nightingales, blinded temporarily by light and capable of breeding like rodents. They hunger for meat, but eat plants alike to ensure they never simply die out, remaining a threat constantly.

This novel attempts to examine multiple perspectives of what it would be like to live in such an environment, rather than simply providing a horror driven story. Perspectives include five hundred survivors living just north of Seattle Washington in a future prison, a pair of sisters living isolated in former New York, a British Sniper stranded in the Middle East and a freedom fighter against a new dictatorship established in former Ireland and United Kingdom: The Emerald Empire.
