NEW NOVEL
Jesus Particles
Two men come to the same Appalachian ridge, eighteen years apart: a soldier home from a war over rare earth minerals, and a boy riding a BMX bike east from the cabin where his parents died after the nuclear strike. What comes for them is a militia church out of Pennsylvania, led by a weeping pastor who means to take dominion over what’s left of America.
When you untie an electric fence with your teeth, it clears your brain right up like a thunderclap.
