As the remnants of humanity defend against the onslaught of a deadly infection, an army commander is sent on a voyage along the river Thames to discover the whereabouts of a missing general. Along the way he witnesses the futility of humanity's struggle and experiences the overwhelming power that one person, promising answers and salvation, can wield over his fellow man.
A homage to Joseph Conrad's short novel, Heart of Darkness, A Last Fire reimagines this classic story in a different time and a different setting, one far more familiar and possibly far more disturbing than Conrad's original.
