A hundred years from now a lot has changed and a lot has stayed the same. The United States and the People's Republic of China have taken their geopolitical contest to Mars, facing off against each other and squeezing the planet for resources to keep the billions on a climate-ravaged Earth alive and comfortable. Caught in the middle are the people of the red planet: thirsty, irradiated, and desperate. Mars is ready to burn.

A simple mistake causes the superpowers to start shooting each other in the space over the planet. The fighting lasts only a few minutes, but in those minutes nuclear weapons poison most of the water on the planet. A bad place to live becomes a hell. And in this hell, four people: a teacher, a soldier, a scientist, and a miner must find a way to not only survive, but fight back. And while the people of Mars suffer and fight, something else is drawn inexorably to the planet, because humanity's hell is someone else's paradise.
