New York Instances bestselling author Richard Kadrey’s fifth Sandman Slim adventure.

Wayne Stark, aka Sandman Slim, offers lost the Qomrama Om Ya, an all-powerful weapon from the banished older gods. Old gods who are returning and searching for their lost power.

The hunt leads Stark for an abandoned shopping mall infested with tribes of squatters. Somewhere in this destroy zone is normally a dead man using the answers Stark needs. All Stark has to do is find the dead guy, recover the artifact, and outwit and outrun the angry outdated gods-and natural-born killers-on his tail.

But not even Sandman Slim is infallible, and any errors will definitely cost him dearly.
