Ever wonder why a man. . .Dying of cancer. . .Constantly hiding from vicious killers. . .And living in a hole in the ground. . .is called. . .LUCKY MISHKA?
The world has destroyed itself in a nuclear holocaust. Survivors live where and how they can. If you've never known the old world you don't miss it.
Mishka has made a life for himself and for reasons even he doesn't understand, he cares for all life in any form. He lives where he can and how he can. His only true fear is the odd people who ride loud "chines" and go around killing things, including people. To protect himself, his animals, and now Plebo, his young friend, he finds a magnificent hole in the ground as his famous hider.
Then the danger comes again, in force.
