The world ended faster than anyone thought it could.
When the dead began to rise, Martha Maxis and her team discovered the outbreak wasn't from their world. It came through a breach from somewhere else.
The Dark Aether.
A twisted mirror of their world where the dead never stop coming. Maxis volunteered to cross over and find out how to stop them. She was supposed to be gone for hours.
For Kestis, Callaghan, and Williams, she was missing for one month. For Maxis, it was four years.
When she finally repairs the portal from the other side and falls back through, she's scarred, burned, and no longer the woman they remember. Maxis knows how to survive the Dark Aether. She knows what hunts in the darkness.
She even knows how they might stop the outbreak. But she doesn't remember her team. She doesn't remember her life.
Now humanity's only hope lies with three Hearts buried somewhere inside the Dark Aether. To destroy them, Maxis has to go back. This time, she's taking the three strangers who once meant everything to her.
