All ending in stalemate; two with the use of biological weapons.\u003cbr\u003eIn the remnants of a great city, the rule of law is badly divided between corrupt civic power and the financial strength of local commerce and a search is going on. The last biologically ended conflict had produced some strange side effects, several groups now sought the origins of the weapons used that most believed had been destroyed in the conflict.\u003cbr\u003eAfter several weeks of dead ends or seemingly useless searches our two characters arrive at the building and set themselves to try and find at least one answer to any of the dozen or so questions that were unsettling them.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Andrew Minhinnick","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47078577340656,"sku":"2940046444285","price":1.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940046444285_p0.jpg?v=1763693638","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940046444285","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
