Notes

Dedication:
This one is for my wife, Georgina Critchlow,
for seeing the potential in a shy, gawky, pimply fifteen year-old
and then putting up with that person for the next sixteen years.
You've been there alongside me every step of the way.

'Welcome to Yellowcake Springs; a pristine, friendly, secure community of citizens involved in the maintenance of one of Western Australia's CIQ Sinocorp nuclear reactor facilities. You have nothing to fear inside the heavily-guarded community, nestled in the quiet streets between the radiation Red Zone and the razor-wired fences. Raise a family. Go to the park. Watch the sun set between the cooling towers. Lament the desperate lives of the lost ones living in the darklands outside the community, where overpopulation and starvation have created a lawless world. Feel lucky. You belong to CIQ Sinocorp now.'
