A Novella

by Jeffrey Turner

Cover by Stacy Drum

A planet in crisis reaches its limit...

        As Earth's population passes the breaking point and precious pockets of nature are locked away behind massive walls, Mars colonization becomes the refuge of the wealthy and the dream of the common man.

        A man in denial reaches his crisis...

        Wounded over the senseless murder of his wife, a social worker's last tenuous hold on life slips after an everyday nuisance plunges him into a tumultuous night unlike any other.

        A hundred million kilometers is one step...

        Caught in a riot, threatened by terrorists, dazzled by drugs, Michael tries to make his way home.   Every step, however, carries his tortured soul further into despair while the promis of salvation burns red in the sky above.
