From the book back:
The human race has become infertile, and the last generation to be born is now adult. Civilization itself is crumbling as suicide and despair become commonplace. Oxford historian Theodore Faron, apathitic toward a future without a future, spends most of his time reminiscing. Then he is approached by Julian, a bright attractive woman who wants him to help get her an audience with his cousin, the powerful Warden of England. She and her band of unlikely revolutionaries may just awaken his desire to live ... and they may also hold the key to survival of the human race.

"As scary and suspenseful as anything in Hitchcock."
- The New Yorker
