Now, in the rubble of a society long dead, a small group of survivors is out foraging for what supplies are left to be found. Their explorations will lead to a fatal confrontation as their paths cross with one young man with a death wish. The story of what drove him to that place on that day is one that will change their outlook forever on their increasingly dark existence on the landscape of a newly alien world.
Author's note : This story was originally published in the collection, Borrowed Time : And Other Tales and again in the first editions of the novel, Behind Our Walls. This title is a combined product of both of those versions.
