Description

Ten years have passed since a deadly pandemic swept the globe, and five years since the last new recorded case. Society came close to collapse, but now there's a vaccine - though not a cure - people are only dying in the usual ways.

In this gripping novel, two characters navigate their own paths. Lukas is among hundreds of infected individuals quarantined on a mountain in Central Asia, where time passes slowly and desperation grows. Rebecca, a scientist who worked on the vaccine, continues to test its effectiveness against mutated strains of the virus, driven by a sense of duty and loss.

Quarantine is a thought-provoking exploration of how we cope with catastrophe's aftermath - as individuals and as a society. A thrillingly intelligent novel that raises important questions about our resilience and capacity for survival.
