On the 28th of December 1991, America was annihilated. With the central leadership decapitated and the infrastructure crippled, the nation fell into ruin. After twenty-five years of brutal civil wars and power struggles, a new power wrested and clawed its way to the top: the remnants of a pre-war ultranationalist movement with a murky past calling itself Fifty Blessings, it has remoulded America in its image, and has ushered in a new era - an era of great change and innovation, but one of even greater conflict, instability and fear. Midnight Animal is the story of John, a man haunted by the past. Once a distinguished operator in one of the most clandestine echelons of the new America, he stumbles upon a deep-seated conspiracy along the way, which shakes him to the core of his beliefs and forces him to turn against those he once faithfully served. Hunted by former friends and betrayed by the very agency which made him, John finds himself pulled further and further into the twisted and vicious underbelly of a new Miami, even as he desperately attempts to finally escape a dark and troubled past while staying afloat in a world balanced precariously on the verge of apocalypse.
