In a future nightmare, our world has become one massive refuse bin. A muddy, offal-festooned place that is lorded over by monstrous flies. Going outside requires protective gear. However, even a filthy worlds needs its keepers.
Dale is a man dedicated to gathering the bodies of the dead for recycling. He tends this task with utmost dedication, not because it is his calling, but because it provides him with the one thing he craves: redemption for a grave mistake.
In this stunning tour de force, C. C. Blake presents a thoughtful take on an unlikely but involving nightmare scenario. It's science fiction done with a bizarro sensibility, in a story that only Blake could tell.
