Frustrated and angry after years of denial and inaction, a 'government of youth' has taken power in North America, and deemed all those older than a prescribed age responsible for the current state of the world, and decreed they should be 'relocated', their property and assets confiscated. David Ashworth, known by his friends and students as Teacher, and his wife May, find themselves among the thousands being moved to ‘new accommodation’ in the abandoned southern deserts – thrown together with a wealthy industrialist and his wife, a high court lawyer, two recent immigrants to America, and a hospital worker. Together, they must come to terms with their new lives in a land rendered unrecognisable. As the terrible truth of their situation is revealed, lured by rumours of a tropical sanctuary where they can live in peace, they plan a perilous escape. But the world outside is more dangerous than they could ever have imagined. And for those who survive, nothing will ever be the same again… _________________ Praise for Paul E Hardisty ‘Just occasionally, a book comes along to restore your faith in a genre and Paul Hardisty's The Abrupt Physics of Dyingdoes this in spades' The Times ‘A stormer of a thriller – vividly written, utterly topical, totally gripping' Peter James ‘Remarkably well-written and sophisticated’ Literary Review ‘Laces the thrills and spills with enough moral indignation to give the book heft … excellent’ Jake Kerridge, Telegraph ‘Searing … at times achieves the level of genuine poetry’ Publishers Weekly STARRED review ‘A trenchant and engaging thriller that unravels this mysterious land in cool, precise sentences’ Stav Sherez, Catholic Herald ‘The plot burns through petrol, with multiple twists and turns’ Vicky Newham Lured by rumours of tropical sanctuary, a disparate group of men and women escape their inhospitable exile to seek freedom, in a near future where civilisation has collapsed … A cataclysmic, clarion-call climate-change thriller from one of the world’s leading environmental scientists… Giá sản phẩm trên Tiki đã bao gồm thuế theo luật hiện hành.
