Ellen King Rice is a former wildlife biologist with a passion for epigenetics and fungi. In her younger years she served as a wildlife conservation officer, a big game manager, an endangered species biologist and as a lobbyist on environmental issues. After a spinal cord injury halted her field work, Ellen studied dominance and territorial behaviors while parenting toddlers and adolescents. One year she entered a "Hank the Cowdog" story contest and won a twenty-two volume set of Hank adventures. This exposure trained her brain in the fine art of being a misunderstood genius. Currently she is working on finding her car keys.
A Rapture is slowly taking up the world's best people. Larry's no saint. Selling insurance policies for post-Rapture pet care seems like an easy income stream that will keep his mother in beer and pretzels.
Larry needs a job to keep his mother in beer and pretzels, but no one is hiring in the uneasy days surrounding a Rapture. As the world slowly gives up its best people, Larry thinks selling insurance policies for pet care could be a low-effort income stream. His work draws in his cousins and a history-mad teenager, who all need food and shelter.
But Larry isn't the only one seeking new clients. A left-behind televangelist craves a new empire, and Larry and his friends are in her way.
When a man with a dodgy past, little impulse control, and highly flexible morals creates a new life, what could go wrong?
"Rice prioritizes the novel's comedic tone, but occasional moments of sincerity soften its wry edge. . . A large and colorful cast of characters fills the novel, and their experiences and coping mechanisms in the rapture-altered world give the story a welcome variety of perspectives." – Kirkus Reviews
