DEVILS UNTO DUST

Willie has always survived, no matter what life has thrown at her including the sickness that swept through the state and turned most living creatures into terrifying monsters called "shakes". Her own mother succumbed to the disease while her father lost himself in gambling and liquor. Still, Willie survives. And she's determined to make sure her younger brothers and sister do too.

Then her good-for-nothing father steals a fortune from one of the most merciless shake hunters in town, and Willie is left with his debt. With two young hunters as guides, Willie sets out across the desert to find him, and make him pay up.

But the desert holds many dangers - and the shakes are only a few of them. To save her family, Willie will have to do whatever it takes to find her father, and survive long enough to return.
