Synopsis

Two timelines, almost two hundred years apart. In the overgrown ruins of a world almost empty of people, the only person Mouse has ever known is Cat, the brave girl who carried him inland, away from the sickness that came from the sea. When strangers arrive with a choice to be made, nothing will ever be the same.

Almost two centuries earlier, a couple are falling in love as the world is dying out. When they discover they are two of the few people still able to have a child, so do the authorities.

Four characters, separated by an insurmountable gulf of time, try not only to survive but to preserve the very thing that makes survival worth it — a story of resilience and hope from the author of A Boy and His Dog at the End of the World.
