A dystopian novel set around London’s disused Heathrow Airport.
For sixteen years the Earth has baked and no girls have been born. Karen’s the last girl. Steven’s her gay twin. Dad turns their home into a fortress as women take their chance to rule the world. Their eyes are on Steven. Perhaps, with a little medical interference, he could be the saviour of the world. The boys of teensquad run the streets, insects clog the skies, the last chance to save the world is handed to a council of women, and scientists are cooking up a brand new Eden.
Born in Leicester, Martin’s career in writing, teaching and publishing has taken him around the globe. ‘All we can do is rattle the bars and look after him as he runs into the hills. We wait for his letters home.’ – The Los Angeles Times. He’s published eleven books, including non-fiction. He is an Emeritus Professor of Creative Writing at the University of Hull.
