January 1, 2000 --- The Future had Arrived Two young couples half the world apart are tested to the depths of their love and humanity when the seemingly harmless computer bugs explode, shattering the foundations of civilization. Each must choose between saving themselves and the society that makes them human. Morgan and Desiree Hyland, pragmatic and strong American baby boomers living on assignment in New Zealand, are unprepared for the madness unleashed at their family and must battle the terrible consequences of their own actions. Seven thousand miles from home and seven months pregnant, they must summon all their courage when they're swept apart and their baby's life is jeopardized. Secluded in a fortress in rural Colorado, Nate Zamora is a disenchanted GenX programmer who's given up trying to convince the world to prepare. He must defy a desperate government strangled by its own unpreparedness for cyberwarfare and ill-conceived emergency measures when his girlfriend, Amber, having astute foresight, vanishes into the night. Nate abandons the safety of his fortress to embark on an emotionally purifying quest to find her, help her--and learn from her. Noontide Night is a thrilling and realistic portrayal of cyberwarfare, of how even small computer problems can bring unparalleled chaos to a once-civilized world.
