Despite being almost a genius (and perhaps a sociopath) Alice has done nothing with her life. In her thirties she still lives with mother. Climate change has rendered large parts of the world uninhabitable so the rich are flocking to New Zealand and taking over. Alice finds herself drawn into taking direct action against these 'wealthugees' when she meets a teenage genius and killer! A deeply weird, darkly funny and timely page-turner.
I stared back at those people who were unashamed to watch a woman lose her shit on the street early on a Wednesday morning here at the end of the world. I wasn't afraid of them. I eyeballed every one of them and even the most stubborn began to bow their heads and move on. Most people don't like scenes. Most people are cowards.
