Scavenger, they called him. Ben Elliott was a fool, everyone in high school thought, a fool for believing what his grandfather believed: the world was about to shatter. For years, Ben and his grandfather had worked hard to prepare for the end of the world, gathering supplies and equipment, buying what they could, taking any castoffs people cared to give them, and ferrying them to their place hidden in the foothills of Cat Mountain.
