Long after the Last War, the survivors roam a poisoned desert under one rule: anyone who sees you must be stalked and killed before he kills you. Leiber’s narrator, a hundred miles from Nowhere, spots a girl drifting toward his line of march, and the two killers have to decide whether to trust each other as they find an old aircraft and its mysterious screens.
