Description: "In a future not far from our own, Los Angeles has stratified even further. Pockets of wealth and influence seclude themselves behind bars, surrounded by vast territories where anything goes. Welcome to Los Angeles...where anger, hunger and disease run rampant, and life and hope are strictly rationed. This is Jonny's world. He's a street-wise hustler, a black-market dealer in drugs that heal the body and cool the mind. All he cares about is his own survival. Until a strange plague turns L.A. into a city of death--and Jonny is forced to put everything on the line to find the cure. If it can be found.."--
