The only way for Nick and his family to keep Horace is to emigrate to Plowman's Planet.

On an arid Mars, local bigwigs compete with Earth-bound interlopers to buy up land before the Un develops it and its value skyrockets. Martian Union leader Arnie Kott has an ace up his sleeve, though: an autistic boy named Manfred who seems to have the ability to see the future.

This novel, Dick said, is about Leo Runcible, "a brilliant, civic minded liberal Jew living in a rural WASP town in Marin County, California."

But it turns out that the remains are more recent, the result of an environmental problem polluting the local water supply.
