Downrigger Drift

A nuclear catastrophe has left America scarred and reshaped the way life works. Survival is a constant struggle, yet people still hold on to the hope for peace and decency. Ryan Cawdor, a fighter whose name has become a kind of legend in this ruined landscape, travels with his companions and steps in whenever a worthy cause demands it.

The story unfolds in the irradiated Great Lakes region, where Ryan's group moves between havens of safety and places where the worst of the new world thrives. Cannibals, the most twisted descendants of humankind, roam the territory and spread fear wherever they go.

On the wrecked shore of Lake Michigan, a meeting with an old friend pulls Ryan into a fight for Milwaukee against a band of dangerous mutant invaders, with the rescue of one of their own at stake.
