The West has fallen back into the lawless frontier. It's the year 2058. The Sino-American War has wiped out generations of men, and a Sterility Epidemic has made ninety percent of the survivors unable to father children. Out beyond the last working power lines, five states have slipped off the map. Colorado. New Mexico. Utah. Wyoming. Montana. They're called the Juniper now-territories ruled by distance, desperation, and the gun. On a brutal cattle drive across this dead zone, Cavatica Weller and her two hard-bitten sisters are fighting to save their family ranch when they find something incredibly rare: a living, fertile boy. To Sharlotte, he's a liability that will get them all killed. To Wren, he's worth more than a herd of cattle. To Cavatica... he's something far more dangerous. Hope. But the Juniper doesn't give up its miracles easily. An inhuman army is already hunting the boy, carving a bloody trail across the frontier-and the sisters are about to learn that in the new West, love is just another reason to die.
