Publisher's Summary

Drawn straight from today’s headlines into a soon-to-be America, a broken country gradually beaten down by one-party rule and loss of personal freedoms, Shantyboat follows the story of two homeless men struggling to recover at least a sliver of freedom by building a shantyboat.

But their efforts inside a society of surveillance and totalitarian controls soon lead them to commit both theft and murder. Then they meet a remarkable young woman who shows them the path back to self-reliance and dignity. Listen to Shantyboat, a dystopian thriller, by the author of Trios: Death, Deceit, and Politics—both available from Wordwooze Publishing.
