Shelter. Self-defense." Wes Parker has survived every horrible thing this life has thrown at him with nothing more than his resourcefulness and disarming good looks.

Book excerpt: The story of New Hampton is written in its refuse. The run-offs of corporate greed and plausible deniability have slipped beneath its craggy surfaces and into the hearts of those who call it home. Overcrowded, crime-ridden, chaotic, and rife with the stench of rapacity, this dystopian cesspool has found a clever way to keep its insufferable citizens treading water, hopeless to see the corruption and helpless to stop it.

A mysterious doctor, his young protege, and a monstrous enforcer are all playing gods--and as their wanton destruction goes unchecked so too does New Hampton's demise. It is in the hands of an extraordinary few who find themselves at the precipice of change for this unholy city--and at the helm of significant change, be it for better or for worse. It is up to them to choose what happens next: Run? Hide? Fight? The fate of the city hangs in the balance... Don't get caught in...The Rain.

Book excerpt: There are a lot of stories about how the rain started.The thing that always comes to mind first isn't the how though, it's the how much. Russell still does the math too: 15, 5,400, and 8,550. 15 inches a day, 5,400 a year, and 8,550 feet since the start.We have no idea if it's accurate. But it's important to think about it, he says, because it reminds us to keep moving. I'm Tanner. Russell plucked me from the rain when I was two.Fourteen years ago we left Philadelphia. As the water rose, we moved west, hoping the elevation would keep us warm and dry. Pittsburg, Indianapolis, Sioux Falls, Rapid City. Now we're stranded on the islands in Wyoming. Russell thinks they used to be the Bighorn mountains. But we can't go back now. There's no warm and there's no dry anymore. Just a rumor about a place where it isn't raining. So we're going to try to make it-520 miles south to Leadville. But we can't drift east, the Great Plains have become waterspout alley, a raging tomb of moving water.Together we push on, surviving, heading to Leadville. But something is wrong with him now. He says it's nothing. But his breathing doesn't sound that way.Exposure, pruned hands, and infection. But since, Rapid City, it's the face eaters too. And the crack in the canoe that's growing. And the ice I think I see on the water. Russell thinks it's my imagination.We cling to the last strips of the veneer. And each other.
