Synopsis

Years ago when the dam collapsed, the city’s water supply went with it. Combined with a decades-long drought, polluted waterways, and gross overpopulation, people were encouraged to voluntarily sell their lives in exchange for water rations to those they leave behind. Neil Vaughn, a hardened 3-stripe Collector, is part of an elite squad who has sworn an oath to the Agency to round up, transport, and deliver the volunteers to the processing facility where they are to be killed. But when he makes the mistake of falling in love, it reawakens his humanity and threatens his most important assignment yet, one which could undermine the Agency’s control over the system should he fail. In a world where everything including life is stripped away, nothing can suppress our ability to love.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

David Luna earned his degree in physics before turning to writing, so naturally his interests tend to fall in the realm of science fiction. He worked in a state-of-the-art research lab experimenting with superconducting compounds, and then dirtied his hands in a blood plasma fractionation facility before receiving his MFA from USC's prestigious Writing for Film & Television program. There he was nominated for the USC Student Humanitas Award and was a finalist in the CBS Diversity Institute's Writers Mentoring Program. Over the years his projects have advanced in numerous competitions including winning Gold Prize for Science Fiction in the PAGE International Screenwriting Awards. David credits his solid foundation in the sciences for being able to bring a unique voice to his creative endeavors.
