From the back cover: "The time: 2035 A.D. The place: post-apocalyptic Philadelphia. The hero: a desperate convict from a subterranean high-security prison. The mission: travel back to the past to discover what killed the world.
James Cole is doing twenty-five-to-life in an underground prison when he is offered a mission that could wipe out his sentence. A group of government scientists are sending him back to the past to discover the source of a deadly virus that laid waste to the world as we knew it. His first trip back mistakenly lands him in 1990-and in a mental hospital. Here he meets a psychiatrist, who, alarmed by his prophetic warnings of the world's fate, believes him to be insane. Also questioning his own sanity, Cole attempts to unravel the apolcalyptic nightmare. His only clues are a haunting childhood memory and a series of cryptic symbols of an unknown group, the Army of the Twelve Monkeys."
