Jethro is an aging man. He lives alone in the dry countryside, with little but his horse for company, far from what remains of civilization-or what passes for it these days. In the sweltering heat and isolation of his rickety outpost, grey hair and the constricting grip of meaninglessness have taken hold, and Jethro ponders over what it might mean to be a good person. His internal struggle, the plight of others, and his need for water draw him out of seclusion and into a lawless dystopia, where precious natural resources are ruthlessly controlled by political thugs and morality lacks precise definition. Jethro must navigate a world where family just means another mouth to feed, and survival depends upon the whims of those who'd trade a life for a trickle of water. His pilgrimage is crossed by holy men, heathens, and those who fall somewhere in-between. Whether by fate, or by chance, he will have his questions answered.
