Summary
In a world prone to violent flooding, Britain, ravaged 20 years earlier by a deadly virus, has been largely cut off. Survivors are few and far between, most of them infertile. Children are a rare commodity.
For 22-year-old Roza Polanski, life with her family in their isolated tower block is relatively comfortable. But when a stranger called Aashay Kent arrives, everything changes. Roza can't shake the feeling that there's more to Aashay than he's letting on. Is there more to life beyond their isolated bubble?

Outstanding narration
A really good story, but what makes this audio book special is the brilliant narrator.

An pleasant and engaging story
It’s rare to find a story that can be read by all ages but still be engaging and enjoyable, particularly a post-apocalyptic sci-fi genre book. It’s well written and well narrated, just enough tension and mystery to keep the story going but not over the top or illogical to the rest of the story.
Would have given 5 stars but felt the ending was a little rushed and a few aspects of the story needed a little more detail, this could have easily been spread over 2 books to elaborate on the details of certain character’s motives and a tad more context to certain elements.
