A new one has been forged atop the shifting dunes, a land of howling wind and infernal sand.In this barren home, siblings Conner, Rob, Palmer, and Violet daily carve out a future. They live in the shadow of their father and oldest sister, Vic, two of the greatest sand divers ever to comb the desert's depths. But these branches of their family tree are long gone, disappearing into the wastes beyond, leaving the younger siblings scratching in the dust, hopeful for a better life.On the other side of No Man's Land, Anya was born beside the abundant mines knowing her prospects would be to marry, have a family, and work in ore, in service to the Empire of the East. But when an atomic bomb delivered by a stranger destroys most of her town--murdering all her friends and community--she follows her father to a strange land of dunes to bring vengeance to their enemies.
