    Summary

    The only difference between being on top of the world and being at the bottom of the barrel is one bad day. This is something Cooper Howard knew intimately well.

    A cowboy, turned marine, turned western Hollywood movie star, Cooper was just the good ol’ American man Vault-Tec needed to promote the ongoing efforts of Project Safehouse amid the tensions of the Sino-American war. That is, until the real plight behind Vault-Tec’s “humanity saving” solutions came to light.

    Now, under threat of permanently stripping him of every last thing he holds dear, Cooper finds himself demoted from corporate superpower poster boy to small town bar owner under Mayor and Vault-Tec Manager-In-Training Hank MacLean.

    Resigned to his fate as a different kind of accessory to the end of the world, Cooper learns again what a difference one day makes when the guiding light from within that shroud of impending nuclear winter comes in the form of Hank MacLean’s estranged daughter, one Lucy MacLean.

     

    Or, how the California wasteland’s Radiation King met his Atomic Queen.

     

    Pre-war into post-war Ghoulcy AU with Hades and Persephone themes.
