4.0

Great opening, well structured and full of mystery. Why move to focus on other characters around the world? Why are so many places left unnamed? Really builds tone and intrigue. In some ways it felt like an extended short story by the end - little character development and instead more open ended questioning about the characters and the new normal they now exist within.
