JETTA OF THE LOWLANDS - Ray Cummings read by Richard Kilmer - Audiobook
3The setting is futuristic with a semi-lawless setting created in the aftermath of a major ecological event. The story is a crime thriller and romance in a pseudo gunslinging western-style setting. A US government agent is sent on a secret mission in 2020 to one of the new countries created as a result of a massive drop in the ocean level to investigate smuggling. The country of Narita is essentially a single mining village. The story is straight forward. The technology of 2020 as imagined in 1930 is slightly amusing.
