Description

In a world where humanity teeters on the brink of extinction, a young woman's presence sets off a chain of events that will change the course of history. Twenty-five years without a child born, the human race faces a desperate future. Against this bleak backdrop, a solitary life is turned upside down by a chance encounter that leads to a group of dissenters. The Warden's rule casts a long shadow, and the old despair, while the young are cruel. But in this ominous atmosphere, a man's life is about to take a drastic turn. As he navigates the complex web of allegiances and rivalries, he is faced with agonising choices that could determine the future of mankind. In this gripping novel, the boundaries between right and wrong are constantly tested, and the consequences of each decision are stark.
