It is said that after a nuclear meltdown, if one can walk away, one will live.
Jolt a rural noir tells the story of residents thirty or more miles from a meltdown who survive. Escaping the threat of radiation fallout causes many to flee. As a result of the explosion, he Matters family are separated and Jason and Ricky, the sons, take to the road. Estranged lovers Natalie and Thaw are among those in the mountain village who accommodate to the needs of the forced emigrants. Winter is coming. Radiation sickness, decontamination, and lack of food, housing, and proper sanitation threaten Newees and Townies alike.
Epic in expanse, Jolt, a rural noir, revised, describes a community determined to survive. Extremely well-researched, informative, and poignant.
