Fission Factor

Private Detective Leon Strong sits in his office, nursing a hangover from the night previous. Top of the desk and under his boots lies a copy of the Diamond City Forum, the prima fascia type ink all about said previous night's explosion over at Pillar Electric, Diamond City's megadont power plant. There's a body...blown to bits...no ID as of yet... The Forum screams terrorism. Along with a plea for old west justice.


The phone rings. It's a guy by the name of Purly Breed, a longtime employee of Pillar. Purly's at police headquarters, downtown, locked in a holding cell, and about half an inch away from a boat ride to Guantanamo. But in the middle of the call, Purly's attacked. Amidst a scuffle comes the boom of a police model .38... And the phone goes dead...


Brace yorself for a wild ride, as what at first appears to be terrorism may actually be a plot to mask a murder. When the smoke clears, Strong uncovers an unexpected dynasty wrapped up in a dirt scam - a real-estate swindle - that's got every mugwump in town tipping like dominoes, then pushing up daisies. But what's poised and ready to drop is something that'll shake your faith in all things holy. The final domino, the Fission Factor....
