The Last Day

by Andrew Hunter Murray - Dystopian, Fiction, Suspense, Thriller

It is 2059, and the world has crashed. Forty years ago, a solar catastrophe began to slow the planet's rotation to a stop. Now, one-half of the globe is permanently sunlit, the other half trapped in an endless night. The United States has colonized the southern half of Great Britain, lucky enough to find itself in the narrow habitable region left between frozen darkness and scorching sunlight. Ellen Hopper is a scientist who wants nothing more to do with her country after its slide into casual violence and brutal authoritarianism. Yet when two government officials arrive, demanding she return to London to see her dying college mentor, she accepts --- and begins to unravel a secret that threatens not only the nation's fragile balance, but the future of the whole human race.
