In the post-apocalypse, folks getting by in the Sanctuary (the remains of St. Louis) are surprised when a woman rushes in to report that in the West, civilization flourishes and crops grow. Unfortunately, there's also an army on the march that enslaves everyone it encounters.

A decent page turner with a good stab at having a variety of characters with their own motivations and personalities. Some good twists. Some violence and scary stuff and some truly wicked folk as expected in a post apocalyptic setting.
