Plot summary
On Fourtymile, eighteen year old Jeremy Lee is preparing an AgroMech with a welding torch (apparently in a fashion to weaponize it) because of an upcoming crisis linked to the Blackout that had happened less than two weeks before when he is interrupted by his mother. Instead of the expected dressing-down, however, Jeremy receives a lecture by his mother about the Jihad and Devlin Stone.
