May 28, 2012Claudia Marceau, sniper extraordinaire and notorious flirt,
has grown bored with Tombstone and the Lazy Ravens as a whole. With her
unrequited crush on the gunfighter Fiona Bishop growing ever more impossible
after the inclusion of Gieo into the mix, she has found temporary comfort in the
arms of the White Queen Veronica. But what she really wants is out—out of
Tombstone, out of the Ravens, out of the range of the romance she can’t have. On
the tumultuous last night, with Tombstone burning down around her, she makes her
escape into the desert night to seek out the father she is certain still lives
and the freedom she craves.Her years of experience as a scout and
survivor serve her well on a tremendous journey through the post apocalyptic
wasteland where she takes counsel from a scorched Owl, slays a rising caste of
Slark, and survives an encounter with an army of mutants that forever changes
her and the fortunes of humanity.When she arrives in the City of Broken
Bridges that arose from the ashes of San Francisco, she finds her father not
only lives, but has become a powerful warlord charged with protecting the most
technologically advanced city in human history. The maudlin French
Canadian heroine becomes embroiled in a love tangle with a British sailor, a
Scottish footballer, and the world’s last donut shop girl. In a landscape filled
with man-eating trees, giant god-like robots, and vile mutants, Claudia strives
to find a moment’s peace before the Lazy Ravens make their push to the west
coast and claim a city with more secrets than people.
