Blessed and burdened with a strange gift for empathy, Charissa Dryden-Burnet stands trial for eco-terrorism in her home town of Edmonton, escapes from a Canadian-owned island prison off the Florida coast, and journeys home to Canada across a continent altered by climate change and political catastrophes. Set in the near future, her story explores love, loss, hope and ambition with plenty of humour and a sharp satirical edge. Reviews: This lucidly-written novel is both witty and penetrating. A cautionary tale well worth reading. Charissa's Shoes is a visionary novel that speaks to the reader on many levels.... I strongly recommend that anyone with a taste for clever satirical political and social commentary rush out and buy this brilliant piece of work. Amazon reviews: Charissa's Shoes is a satiric, dystopian novel that is both absurd and prophetic. It is a startling reflection on the potential for cyber terrorism in the modern era. It was written before the Trump era, and mostly takes place in Canada, but some of the ludicrous behaviour of people seeking power could have been taken from today's news.
