Maria woke with no memory, rescued from the sex dungeon of a man who had held her captive. With her captor dead, now she may be the only hope for police to find another missing woman. Detective Cody McGraw is tasked to help Maria recover her memories. Just one problem - Maria isn’t who she thinks she is. She’s not even human.

But first, Cody is given a chance to find out what she knows.

Jack should never have been out that morning. If he hadn’t been out, he never would’ve hit the girl on the bike.

And fate has brought him into the life of the last person he thought he’d ever have to see - the girl’s mother.

Annie isn’t usually vengeful, but her hand’s been forced. She faces a decision: Should she let Keith play her like a sucker, or should she be strong like the heroine of her screenplay?

Dopo essersi svegliati in un mondo disabitato, alcuni sopravvissuti vivono rintanati in un albergo, mentre fuori misteriose creature continuano a moltiplicarsi e ad aspettare… Luca è riuscito finalmente a liberare Paola dal sogno che la teneva prigioniera. Ma il ragazzo ha pagato un prezzo molto alto: al suo risveglio, si è ritrovato invecchiato di cinque anni. Nella città di New York, Times Square è una sconcertante e immensa distesa di corpi umani che si sovrappongono.

È alle 02:15, in piena notte, che accade. Ma solo al risveglio l'umanità - o quel che ne resta - se ne rende conto. Il mondo è deserto, gli uomini che lo popolavano dissolti nel nulla. Familiari, amici, conoscenti, vicini di casa... sono tutti scomparsi, come non fossero mai esistiti. Non rimane che una manciata di sopravvissuti.

Coloro che per uno scherzo del destino sono stati condannati a un'esistenza desolata e pericolosa su quello che un tempo era considerato il mondo degli uomini, sanno di avere un conto in sospeso con il male oscuro e sconosciuto che li ha scelti come vittime. Sono soli e abbandonati a sé stessi, eppure inscindibilmente legati a coloro con cui condividono la sorte, uomini che un tempo avrebbero forse disprezzato e che ora invece considerano l'unica speranza rimasta in quel nuovo universo, dominato da forze insondabili e nemiche. Brent, Luca, Charlie, Boricio.

In a small desert village without memory, the Lightborn labor unseen - while in the Mullah stronghold beyond, Clara fights an old battle to free the minds of mankind. She's come up against a wall. She's fallen into a trap. And now, finally, the walls have begun to crumble.

Every writer wants to create timeless, memorable stories and characters who feel like real friends. The masterclass is no further away than your TV. Classic television holds up because of one thing: great writing.
