Built For Hanging On
(2013)(The fifth book in the Steve Vernon's Sea Tales series)
A Novella by Steve Vernon
It happened just yesterday or perhaps it happened the day before.
The bombs were dropped.
No one knew why. Maybe a political study was taken into careful consideration. Perhaps a research grant had been involved. A new plan to invigorate the stock market. Whatever the reason, due diligence was undoubtedly done and all aspects were carefully considered. Certainly the motion was passed around the Senate a time or two. After all, an election was coming.
And then they went ahead and did it.
Every vestige of civilization was blown away, save for a few stubborn traces barnacled along the grim fringes of existence.
Like say, maybe the Maritimes....
Genre: Science Fiction
