Six months ago the Gulf Stream stopped flowing, resulting in unprecedented rainfall across the U.K. and a state of emergency being declared.
Three months ago the U.K. government began a nationwide evacuation after new weather models predicted conditions would continue to decline.
One month ago the trains, planes and boats suddenly stopped returning, bringing the evacuation to a halt and leaving many still stranded.

One month ago the trains, planes and boats suddenly stopped returning, bringing the evacuation to a halt and leaving many still stranded.
Now, many of those that remain are gathered along the south coast, struggling to survive as they wait for rescue. Lucretia is the story of a small group of these survivors as they try to stay alive and come to terms with the collapse of the lives they'd once known. Hunger, exposure and the desperation of others all pose a threat as conditions worsen, the hope of rescue giving them a reason to go on. But how long can hope last in the face of such calamity? A gripping apocalyptic tale with an inescapable chill factor, Lucretia is a 'must read' for any fans of the genre. Intense and disturbing, humorous and heartfelt, it's a beautifully balanced read and a story that'll leave you cold for all the right reasons. Edwin Page is the author of numerous other titles, including additional apocalyptic fiction.
