With the Lattice destroyed, the systems the world relies upon have come undone. Global communications are down, food is growing scarce, and the weather is spiraling out of control. Shaw must fight his way across two shell-shocked continents if he ever wants to see his wife again. Unfortunately for him, he must navigate between those who are trying to rebuild the Lattice and those who are willing to kill anyone who might have the expertise or the resources to pull it off. Shaw must choose sides.

Byron Shaw can track and find anyone on Earth. Except the people who tried to kill him. By 2081, privacy no longer exists. The Lattice enables anyone to re-live any moment of your life. People can experience past and present events - or see into the mind of anyone, living or dead. Most people love it. Some want to destroy it. Colonel Byron Shaw has just saved the Lattice from the most dangerous attack in its history. Now he must find those responsible.

Will’s first time through 1999 was a pretty good year. And, the second time was even better. But, as the year continues to repeat, and as the world realizes that they might be trapped in 1999 forever, Earth’s civilizations start to unravel. What is causing the time loop? Why is the world stuck in 1999? Is it the Y2K bug? Or something else entirely? When Will discovers the shocking truth causing the global disaster - and his own unwitting role in it - he will be asked to give up everything in order to save the world and get humanity back on track to the year 2000.

With the Lattice restored, the improved network is all the more wonderful and all the more terrible for it. With it, Shaw can give his body over to another to control, clone a 900-year old saint, or dip into a raw feed of the Lattice’s immense knowledge. But should he? Trapped between his two worst enemies - Taveena Parr and the surviving raiders on one side and Zella Galway and the cartel of corporations on the other - Shaw must blaze his own path if he wants to save his family.

Thousands of people serving their communities have discovered surprising things about leadership: it's much more about listening than directing, more about learning than knowing, more about willingness to deeply challenge themselves than any special inborn qualities - and that grasping all this is a rewarding practice that never ends. This is their story.
