Set in 2056, After The Clearances is a gripping cli-fi novel that explores the impacts of climate change through a story of loyalty and revenge. The Seeders, a self-sufficient community, flee to a remote Welsh island to escape the government's repressive Clearances, and cultivate a new way of living. But 13-year-old Seeder, Glesni, suspects her family is hiding something. When Sandy, a vengeful mainlander, washes ashore, Glesni is drawn to search for a truth that threatens to put those she loves at risk and maybe even jeopardize the whole community. Meanwhile, on the mainland, fugitive Winter finds an unlikely friendship with a wild woman living off the land. How are their fates connected?
