In the irradiated ruins of post-war Melbourne, children are going missing.
The war in China changed Lance Corporal Diana Yossole. It broke her. It rebuilt her. Now she patrols the shanty-towns along Melbourne's shoreline, keeping the peace with engineered, military precision.
But when Yossole is tasked to assist the local bluecaps in an infant kidnapping investigation, she discovers that war has a way of following you home. There's a conspiracy at work, hidden just out of sight between the sunken streets and bombed-out favelas, one that people would kill to protect... and that Yossole would break all the rules to uncover.
WEARY is a cyberpunk/military scifi short, first published in Apollo's Daughters.
