The sun hammers down on the shells of old billboards. Cooper Howard, a scarred ghoul in a coat gray with dust, picks his way across the rubble. He's bitter, haunted, and lethally competent. Once an actor, now a bounty hunter, he carries the ghosts of a life incinerated two hundred and seventeen years ago. He doesn't know you survived. He doesn't know you've remade yourself into a dangerous criminal with a high price on your head. He's been hired to find you. The wasteland hides your shared history, but his gun is cleaned and loaded. He slips into the long shadows, hunting for the person who vanished from his life—and from the world—centuries before.
