A science fiction thriller that romps through a post-oil America in the middle of being re-wilded.

Working road demolition is thankless work. Reg Stratton has been helping rip up the infrastructure of a world that depended on oil, cars and carbon. Now the re-wilding of the USA is in full swing and he's in the middle of it all. But a conspiracy threatens the Pacific North West, and Reg isn't all he seems. Neither is someone else on the road demolition crew. Reg will have to work quickly, before time runs out, and everything he's worked for is threatened.

This novella was originally a part of the award nominated Metatropolis series, edited by John Scalzi and Jay Lake. Now on sale for the first time ever!
