Our tragic hero lives a relatively normal life for someone surviving the apocalypse. He spends his time walled up in his safe house, eating canned food and watching television. He sleeps every once in a while. He thinks about tidying up his messy rooms. But he's recently incurred an abnormal problem. Nothing ever remains where he leaves it, not his keys, not his used plates, not even the television remote. And he suspects that his bizarre situation might stem from that moldy sandwich he left in the back of his fridge years ago...

Han kommer mot mig med långsamma steg och med ett elakt flin på läpparna. Pistolen håller han fortfarande i ett ledigt grepp riktad mot mig. Han skrattar torrt och läger huvudet på sned. "Gör det ont? Att förlora?" Pojken sänker pistolen en bit så att mynningen är riktad mot mitt huvud. Liggandes i en pöl av mitt eget blod och med smärtan som pulserar genom min kropp har jag ingen chans, ingen chans att vinna. Året är 3056 och världen ligger i spillror. Det som en gång var England är numera en del av Östunionen. Den demokrati som styrde landet är borta sedan århundraden. Likaså de männskliga rättigheter som en gång fanns. Numera bestämmer en ensam kvinna tillsammans med sin regering allt. Merissa McLean... Hon styr över England, Skottland, Tyskland, Frankrike, Tjeckien och Nederländerna med järnhand. Qeezle Jones är sjutton när hennes liv vänds upp och ner. Plötsligt spelar hon en avgörande roll i ett maktspel hon inte kan reglerna till. Samtidigt dras en pojke vid namn Nathaniel in i leken från ett annat håll. Han har alltid varit annorlunda så när militären kommer, och han tvingas fly, är han inte förvånad. De två blir brickor i ett spel på liv och död där alla ställs mot alla och lojalitet är lika sällsynt som fiskar på land. Och plötsligt upptäcker Qeezle och Nathaniel att allt de trott på är en välslipad lögn. Högst rankad #1 i science fiction
