John Mann: At Day's End
()
About this ebook
John Mann – At Day’s End. The final book in the All the Day’s of John Mann trilogy. This is the conclusion of the story that began in The Stolen Day’s of John Mann, and continued in The Darkening Days of John Mann.
The virus that mutated and made the leap from birds to humans has decimated the country’s population, and the survivors live in mortal fear of another sudden outbreak of the choke. People cling to what remains of society, desperate to rebuild communities, and endure as best they can in a violent world. A weak government maintains a fragile grip on law and order, propped up by a threadbare military, and murderous criminal gangs.
John Mann, the only known survivor of the choke, spent years of his youth kept prisoner in laboratories, a guinea pig to be studied and tested as a source for a cure, or for use as a potential weapon. He has lived his life since as a haunted and hunted man, a target.
John is now held captive again, in a secure London location. Guarded by the military and subject to the whims of Secretary Hunt, who plans to use him to stir up fear amongst the population, and also to trade him to the Americans for replacement tech. Mann is a valuable asset worth hiding and guarding well. But his friends and allies are nearby, searching for him through the vast landscape of a ruined city, hell bent on rescuing him.
Keen and Doctor Ellen Russell and Daniel Vincent have forged a precarious alliance to further their pursuit of John. Each has their own agenda for finding him, and none of them trust each other. Meanwhile, Gunnar and Ma May rely on the street smarts of young Hal Scarrot to help them navigate the dangerous streets and parklands of the city, as they too look to find John, and keep themselves one step ahead of a rough London justice at the hands of ruthless Jack Tidy and the brutal Hyde.
Who can really be trusted when life is so precarious, and so easily traded for gain? Old enemies continue to circle, while new ones emerge to challenge for the prize that is John Mann, and the harsh life on the London streets threatens to sink them all.

Charles Barrow lives on the south coast of England. He studied English Literature and Film at University. He grew up in the shadow of the nuclear arms race, and his formative influence was the 1975 BBC television series ‘Survivors’, set in a post-apocalyptic Britain. It's fair to say that the resulting paranoia feeds into his current fiction. But despite fearing that the Earth of the future will be far less ‘peopled’ than it currently is he remains an optimistic soul. Charles has, so far, self published three novels in the John Mann series.
