For thirty years humanity struggled to cope with the brilliants, the one percent of people born with remarkable gifts. For thirty years we tried to avoid a devastating civil war. We failed. The White House is a smoking ruin. Madison Square Garden is an internment camp. In Wyoming, an armed militia of thousands marches toward a final, apocalyptic battle. Nick Cooper has spent his life fighting for his children and his country. Now, as the world staggers on the edge of ruin, he must risk everything he loves to face his oldest enemy-a brilliant terrorist so driven by his ideals that he will sacrifice humanity's future to achieve them. From one of our best storytellers (Michael Connelly) comes the blistering conclusion to the acclaimed series that is a forget-to-pick-up-milk, forget-to-water-the-plants, forget-to-eat total immersion experience (Gillian Flynn). The explosive conclusion to the bestselling Brilliance Trilogy. The kind of story you've never read before. -Lee Child, New York Times bestselling author of the Jack Reacher Series Ridiculously good. I love this story so much. -Gillian Flynn, New York Times bestselling author of Gone Girl Sakey brings his cinematic series to a ferocious close. -Kirkus
