Synopsis

Out of the depths of the galactic core, something approaches – something bad for the teeming billions occupying Earth. The Conservancy has a plan. Managed by a handful of wealthy corporate executives and politicians, this group has known about the approaching apocalypse for several years. They’ve begun to prepare habitats for humanity – not many habitats and those not for much of humanity. Melody Lucero is not the first to uncover what’s coming. Others have been silenced – permanently.The Conservancy does what they can to silence her. When that fails, they turn to murder. But not of Melody Lucero for she is still worth billions if kept alive…and silent. In the next to the last summer, the penultimate summer, chaos reigns and martial law is declared. The federal effort is a sham and, as the long winter approaches, it’s endgame for The Conservancy. Time to eradicate all “unsanctioned” shelters. At the onset of deep winter, Melody makes a horrifying discovery…one that implies all the planning; including that of The Conservancy might be for naught. It's about global cooling and global warming, each occurring when the other might be expected. This is character-driven speculative fiction (science fiction). Some believe that plot should trump people in speculative fiction, but this story is an exercise in opposites.
