Kuhusu kitabu hiki cha kusikiliza

Crisis slid from distant threat to imminent probability and we tuned it out like static. Francesca is Caro’s stepmother and Pauly’s mother. A scientist, she can see what is going to happen. The high house was once her holiday home, now looked after by locals Grandy and Sally, she has turned it into an ark, for when the time comes. The mill powers the generator, the orchard is carefully pruned, the greenhouse has all its glass intact. Almost a family, but not quite, they plant, store seed, and watch the weather carefully.

With plenty of experience in audiobooks and radio dramas, Sam says ‘Breathing life into words on the page is my jam.’
