Jeremy Flagg,
takes his love of superheroes and comic books and adapts them for an older,
darker, more mature audience in Nighthawks (March 1st, 2016;
Limitless Publishing), the first book in the Children of Nostradamus series. A
cross between Minority Report and X-Men, Nighthawks blends a not-so-pristine
future with the trials of superhuman fugitives.
It’s been twenty years since Nostradamus predicted the end
of the world. Since that day, a small percentage of people have emerged with
extraordinary abilities. Fearing their gifts, the government has dedicated a
branch of the military to capturing, researching and terminating the superhuman
threat. The Children of Nostradamus who evaded capture flee to New England, a
radioactive wasteland created by domestic terrorists.
In 2032 a letter from Eleanor, a dead psychic and former
aide to the President of the United States, reaches Conthan on the night of his
controversial art gallery opening. As protestors and supporters clash, chaos
breaks out and he discovers he is a Child of Nostradamus, a person with
extraordinary abilities. Guided by the letter of a dead woman, he finds himself
trapped between hunted super humans and a research center controlled by the
government. Caught in a war between species, Conthan must decide what humanity
he is willing to sacrifice in order to survive.
Influenced by the comic books and dark fantasy he read as a
kid, Jeremy Flagg has found a way to take these heroes and weave them into a
fast-paced apocalyptic novel. Nighthawks invites the reader to witness the
humanity behind the powers and the tough decisions they make for a greater
good.
