520    "In a near future where climate change has severely 
       affected weather and agriculture, the North End of an 
       unnamed city has long been abandoned in favor of the 
       neighboring South End. Aside from the scavengers steadily 
       stripping the empty city to its bones, only a few thousand
       people remain, content to live quietly among the crumbling
       metropolis. Many, like the narrator, are there to try to 
       escape the demons of their past. He spends his time 
       observing and recording the decay around him, attempting 
       to bury memories of what he has lost. But it eventually 
       becomes clear that things are unraveling elsewhere as well,
       as strangers, violent and desperate alike, begin to appear
       in the North End, spreading word of social and political 
       deterioration in the South End and beyond. Faced with a 
       growing disruption to his isolated life, the narrator 
       discovers within himself a surprising need to resist 
       losing the home he has created in this empty place. He and
       the rest of the citizens of the North End must choose 
       whether to face outsiders as invaders or welcome them as 
       neighbors."--Jacket flap.
