From the bestselling author of Mexican Gothic comes a novella about the price of dreams in a ravaged near-future.

"A subtle and powerful tale of Mars, movies, and Mexico City which stands amongst the best novellas of the past few years." -Jonathan Strahan, Locus

Amelia dreams of Mars. The Mars of the movies and the imagination, an endless bastion of opportunities for a colonist with some guts. But she's trapped in Mexico City, enduring the drudgery of an unkind metropolis, working as a rent-a-friend, selling her blood to old folks with money who hope to rejuvenate themselves with it, enacting a fractured love story. And yet there's Mars, at the edge of the silver screen, of life.

It awaits her.
