Publisher's summary

In the near future, America is crumbling, bankrupt, and teetering on the edge of chaos. Following the Great Bailout, the multinational Lee-Pi corporation is the only institution that can hold the country together, providing basic services, security, and order. Leonard Cheung is Lee-Pi's most reliable field operative: a negotiator, assassin, and clean-up expert who does the behind-the-scenes dirty work to keep the corporation running.

When the city of Philadelphia is evacuated after a suspected terrorist attack, the corporation drops Cheung into the insanity to retrieve a priceless possession: a champion racehorse belonging to Mr. Lee himself. Cheung is the perfect man for the job, having grown up on the outskirts of the city. In this surreal homecoming, Cheung must track the majestic animal through the deserted streets of a dead city. But Cheung soon discovers that he is not alone. Freedom fighters, long opposed to Lee-Pi's authority, are hunting the horse for their own reasons. And the collision between the resistance movement and the obedient company man will force Cheung to question everything he believes, who he has become, and what is worth fighting for.

Going native in the apocalypse

I was hoping for a bit more action and personality, ala Snake Pliskin in Escape From New York, but this was more of a fable in the apocalypse. We follow Cheung on a mission for The Man to recover a horse in the Pennsylvanian wasteland. There’s some backstory for Cheung and a little bit of color for the folks he runs into out in the new wilds. However, there could have been more dialogue, action or interesting quirks to make this standout. As written, this was a rather plain novella of what happens when the world goes to pot.
