They helped destroy the world. Now they have to survive the new one.

For rentboy Nico Fernández, it's a simple job: seduce a presidential advisor to help cement approval to launch Project Juggernaut. He's done similar work for General Logan McClosky before, and manipulating people for his favorite client beats the hell out of being trafficked for slave wages in some corporate brothel.

Zach Houtman feels called to work with the most vulnerable outcasts of society. But his father, the Reverend Maurice Houtman, insists that Zach work for him instead as he runs for Senate. Zach reluctantly agrees, but is horrified to see his father leave behind Christ's mandate of love and mercy to preach malicious zealotry and violence instead. Zach even starts to suspect his father is working with fundamentalist terrorists.

When Project Juggernaut accidentally unleashes a deadly plague that claims billions of lives, Nico and Zach are thrown together, each bearing a burden of guilt. With only each other for safety and solace, they must make their way through a new world, one where the handful of people left alive are willing to do anything — and kill anyone — to survive.

      Erotic gay romance generally isn’t spoken of in the same breath as religious politics or postapocalyptic horror, yet Gormley manages to seamlessly blend all these elements in this impressive sequel to Strain. Nico Fernández prides himself on being a high-quality escort in a present-day world where work in the sex trade is legal—and can border on human trafficking. Zach Houtman is the son of a prominent religious politician, questioning his role in his father’s life and campaign. When Nico and Zach’s lives intersect, their mutual attraction overwhelms their professional and personal reasons for staying apart. Meanwhile, a weaponized disease mutates and turns people into revenants, and soon civilization collapses. Gormley’s straightforward style and seemingly intentional lack of subtlety work well to highlight current controversial issues. Unfortunately, the uncomfortable sexual intensity, borderline nonconsensual situations, and rushed cliffhanger ending detract from an otherwise well-constructed story.
