Between Dark Latitudes

Now, looking down on him from the elevation, as he stepped down into the declining driveway, she felt something for him. Not just for him, but for what he must do. Poor man, that Dennis Freelander, she had thought to herself. I pity the man, even before I ever slept with him.

Meritopia is a society built on the remnants that remain of what once was North America. Now, a small radiated wasteland called Betacong, is all that remains of what used to be a flourished section of the Meritopian Empire. Dennis Freelander is a detective, otherwise known as a Booster Agent, assigned to monitor the border between this toxic desert, and the rest of society. His job is to keep the atrocities that dwell in this wasteland away from civilization.
One fateful night, an unknown ship, carrying a human payload, crash lands on a communications tower along the Betacong border. The incident kills two security guards, and is the start of an unraveling conspiracy that will lead Dennis, accompanied by his partner Nyko, and a handful of other misfits, on a perilous journey. A journey that will lead them down a descending spire, and suck them into a world of both human and drug trafficking, as well as bring them face to face with both ghosts of their pasts, as well as otherworldly beings that will illuminate their future.
