Oscar Sunder, no longer fueled by selfish desires, is haunted by the presence of a younger, more volatile menace. Threatened by an evil no safeguard can repel, the people of Thicket must believe in ghosts save themselves from a terror born in silver.
Following the events of City of Thicket, the tale of the immortal man is faced with his final days.
In a recycled world, people can reach their potential. In Thicket, no one can survive without the Silver Collar Society. People use bio-engineering to face the painful errors of their past, and as memories are illegally traded, everyone capable of second chances will stumble without something to believe.
One person can make a difference but the survival of Thicket can become the one decision that saves the lives of millions by someone breaking all the rules. Having salvaged the last stronghold in existence, the people of Thicket have become more than a tale of hope for the future of the human race.
The people of Thicket, interwoven in culture, are humanity's promise for a better world, built upon the recycled rubble of an insensitive planet.
In an era of body modifications and second chances, Oscar is among those many would call a specialist. Thanks to the Silver Collar Society, the pathway to immortality will became the tale of the man who tried to live forever.
