Publisher's Synopsis
Debuting in March, 2010 from Jesse Alexander, a writer and producer of Heroes and one of the original producers of Lost, Day One is an exciting new NBC series which follows a group of people living in an LA apartment complex. While their presence together seems random, each has been chosen without his or her knowledge, and only by banding together will they be able to fight off an alien invasion. Written by the talented and Hugo award-winning science fiction writer Terry Bisson, this book tie-in will serve as a prequel to the series, offering a look inside the characters' worlds during the year leading up to the first episode and depicting the life changing events that brought them to live in the same seemingly random LA apartment complex. All of the stories told in the prequel will be referenced in the pilot episode, but only those who've read the prequel novel will know the full story. In addition the book will reveal a secret about one of the show's central characters that will not be made public in the series until much later in the season. Explosive, dramatic, and captivating, this prequel novel is an integral part of the Day One pop culture phenomenon that will begin in March 2010.
