Here's how Marvel describes the book, written by Ed Brubaker and drawn by Marc Silvestri:
"Since the events of M-Day, the mutant population has been reduced to a mere handful and no new mutants have been born. But all that changes when the X-Men discover a new mutant has arrived. But this cause for celebration is tainted by the early arrival of the Marauders and the Purifiers -- and with those two groups involved, the X-Men may not find this mutant! But if they do, will this new player prove to be their savior or a harbinger of doom for mutantkind? A perfect jumping on point for new readers, this special one-shot sets the stage for the jaw-dropping changes to come! This issue features nine extra pages of hints of what's to come."
Silvestri and David Finch are providing covers for the issue.
