From the Publisher
When a man escapes from a biological testing facility, he sets
in motion a deadly domino effect, spreading a mutated strain of the
flu that will wipe out 99 percent of humanity within a few weeks.
The survivors who remain are scared, bewildered, and in need of a
leader. Two emerge--Mother Abagail, the benevolent 108-year-old
woman who urges them to build a community in Boulder, Colorado; and
Randall Flagg, the nefarious "Dark Man," who delights in chaos and
violence.
