Victor Driscoll is a successful and beloved "elder statesman" in Alexandria, Minnesota, who founded and runs a huge heavy-truck leasing company. However, unknown to pretty much everyone, his commitment to business ethics is "Don't get caught." When it all hits the fan, Victor's sons, Kelly and Ryan, are brought in to make it right. Kelly runs a number of local business and does have a moral compass, and Ryan is a Stillwater attorney, determined to preserve his father's "good guy" legacy. They recruit foul-mouthed and offensive Margaret Kratski as their office manager/investigator and Donna Carlasccio, a former marine with anger issues, as their muscle. Margaret admits that she's been fired by more bosses than she can count, and Donna is reputed to have actually killed more bad guys with her Sig Sauer in close combat than with her marine-issue M16. What could go wrong.

Jake Dennison is a highly educated, high-functioning, antisocial jerk. He found the perfect job, digging a mile-long tunnel thirty feet under the surface of the moon. No people to interrupt him, no inspectors to second-guess him, and no bosses with the guts or capacity to fire him. And then things went south. Other inhabitants of the base on the surface started moving down into the "tube." Whole families showed up on the shuttles. Mind-numbing discoveries were made that would change the course of human existence. Some people even wanted to be his friend. And a whole litany of, in Jake's view, other crap like that. This is the story of the first colony on the moon and of the explorers who chose to call it their "forever home." The narrative is outrageous, apocalyptic, funny, tear-jerking, and so real it could happen next year, or next week. Strap in for a wild ride.
