Mad Max meets Dune in this post-apocalyptic survival adventure set in the lawless perimeter of Manna City.

Out in the Perimeter, no one cares if you die...

Manna City is a climate-controlled utopia for the elite, enclosed in a massive wall. But when an unknown female is found dead in the shantytown outside full of desperate people hoping to get in, the local Body Collector takes an interest.

His usual job is to burn unclaimed dead to earn a meager wage. However, the victim bears the strange markings of the Olduvai survivalists who manage to live in the surrounding wasteland by cultivating dala, a medicinal plant with hallucinogenic properties.

The Olduvai want to know what happened to one of their own, and they’ll pay the Body Collector in supplies — maybe dala — so he can leave this place for good.

Unless, of course, her trail points him to what lies on the other side of the wall, and a truth about the world that can change everything.

Jump into an an action-thriller twisting around a conspiracy in a post-apocalyptic world, perfect for fans of William Gibson, Brandon Sanderson, Michael Crichton, and the game Fallout!
