Publisher Description
A bored, lonely teenager drifts across a stifling provincial landscape on the brink of civil war.
Fleeing the scene of the night before, Helena ricochets around her hometown—taming feral children, getting high with Bukowski's smallest fan, hitchhiking through Pannonian Plain in a blackout, trading riddles with a mysterious old crone.
She tells herself it doesn't matter. That she'll be out of here soon, anyway. But as the ghosts of a forgotten war begin to stir and angels sent look the other way, Helena's too busy falling for the lead singer of a band she despises to notice the flashing exit sign.
