Time is running out. Mankind is on the verge of extinction caused by a mysterious occurrence known simply as "the Illness." Emma Bright, a criminal investigator for the only remaining government on earth, embarks on mankind's last criminal investigation with the hope of somehow linking the phony murder of history's greatest prophet, Günter Habsburg, to the apocalypse. However, there is one problem: "the Illness" has destroyed all of the evidence that ever existed. In her journey to solve the riddle of "the Illness," Emma unintentionally steps into a whirlwind of randomness and eventually learns, not only the purpose of her own life, but also the meaning of all life.
