In the future, the world is going downhill. A horrible disease is killing the population. This disease is called the New Plague. Once you have the disease, there is no way to cure it, and you can only fight it for so long. You know you have the disease when a small black 'x' appears on your palm. The blackness slowly spreads up your arm until it reaches its final, fatal destination; the base of your neck. No one knows how or why you get the disease. Millie Blackwood lives in North Mazyra, what used to be England. The epidemic is quickly spreading across the country and reaching her town. When people close to Millie get the New Plague, she is determined to figure out a way to save them. The only problem is, there is no known cure. Millie hears a legend that she can find a way to save them at the place where the disease began. She sets off to find this place while doing the hardest task off all; not getting the disease herself.
