"A novel"--Cover.

Ash finds her stepbrother, Bly, in Snowflake, Arizona, where an odd assortment of neighbors--and soon, Ash--are sick from modern life, paralleling the planet's decline.

Snowflake, Arizona, six thousand feet up in the wide red desert. Ash is looking for her brother, Bly. She Mona; her goat, Socrates; her dog, Cooper; and finds Bly. They live in ramshackle homes, the walls lined with tinfoil. Mona and her neighbors are all sick. They've been poisoned by modern life. When Ash falls ill, the doctor says "It's all in your mind." Ash and the isolated residents of Snowflake cycle through illness, recovery and loss as the world beyond succumbs to a breakdown of civilization. -- adapted from jacket
