Callsign Cerberus Mark Ellis

America had barely survived a nuclear and ecological holocaust. Two centuries later, a new order emerges to inflict its rule on the fortified city-states known as baronies. Beyond the walls is Terra Infernus, the hell on earth, where a fragile freedom remains.

Once a fearsome warrior of the new order, Kane discovers a secret that has damned humanity since the dawn of history. Banished as an enemy of the state, he joins forces with Brigid Baptiste, keeper of the archives and brother-in-arms Grant to free the future from the yoke of inhuman power.

In the place that was once called New Mexico, the Cerberus warriors find the first clues to humanity's dark destiny.
