Human Rites
The Life Lottery PDF Print E-mail
Sci Fi Books - Human Rites

Irith Hardey's life is out of control. The world's climate is in chaos. Rising seas have flooded out half a billion people. Hundreds of millions of refugees are pouring into the west, the global economy is collapsing and democracies are being crushed by the anti-refugee Yellow Armbands. But there is worse to come. In a desperate attempt to avert the coming ice age that will wipe out civilisation, the Great Powers have agreed to embark on the most monumental gamble of all time ­ 100 Days to Save the World.

Climate scientist Irith Hardey is sure they've got it wrong ­ the US President's pet scheme isn't going to save the world, but ruin it. Searching for the awful truth behind the 100 Days project, Irith is tormented by the Yellow Armbands, then hunted from blizzard-struck London to the Scottish Highlands and across the wild North Sea.

In a USA terrorised by gun-toting militias trying to bring down the President, Irith is forced to confront the worst nightmare any 21st century woman can face, as she struggles to uncover the ghastly secret of the Life Lottery before 100 days are up.

Note: Being revised and will be republished in 2009 

 
Terminator Gene PDF Print E-mail
Sci Fi Books - Human Rites

A knock at the door and Irith's life is changed forever.

Her mother, Jemma, has been imprisoned for an unspecified crime. Her home and possessions confiscated, Irith is cast out into a hostile world where a permit is required for everything, and Security won't give her one.

Picked up by the mysterious Bragg, Irith is taken to a Britain collapsing under the sanctions of the Global Congress. She is hurled into a violent battle between Security and a mysterious cabal trying to break into a Congress data centre. They steal a file about a deadly terminator gene virus but no one can decipher it.

The group are hunted through the flooded tunnels under the London Docklands, to the highlands of Minnesota, then to a New Orleans slowly drowning under the rising seas. As the hurricane of the century bears down on the sinking city, Irith struggles to crack the secret of the terminator gene, and destroy it, before it wipes out all humanity.

It’s a much better book...'
