Description

America Pacifica is an island hundreds of miles off the coast of California, a last refuge from a world in the grip of a new ice age. Seventeen-year-old Darcy Pern's search for her missing mother becomes an investigation into the mysterious origins of America Pacifica and its enigmatic leader, Tyson. As she delves deeper into the truth, Darcy uncovers disturbing secrets about the island and its inhabitants. With its post-apocalyptic scenario and poignant relationship between Darcy and her mother, America Pacifica draws comparisons to works by Margaret Atwood and China Mieville, as well as Cormac McCarthy's The Road. A gripping and thought-provoking novel, America Pacifica is a story of survival, determination, and the unyielding pursuit of truth.
