In 1969, an underground mine fire lit the fuse on a Pennsylvania town. Thirty years later, the few who remain in this desolate, lawless place will discover something there worth a fight... Gunther Gott is a dive bartender at the last business operating in town. He has few friends. He's in love with a girl who doesn't exactly second the emotion. He's accomplished nothing in this life except how to achieve the perfect "pour," and doesn't see a whole lot of reasons to push beyond that. But there are others in town who want to take what little he has. A single gunshot will put him on a new path. A second gunshot will push him down it. And when Gunther realizes the truth about this long-dead town, he will become the one man nobody expects defending the one place nobody wants. And doing it for the best reason: Payback.

Go ahead, pull up a stool. You'll like what Zim's pouring." - Matt Bean, former editor-in-chief, Entertainment Weekly Warning: Contains violence, profanity, sexual content, and adult themes.
