Description
THE NUMBER ONE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER
THE COUNTDOWN HAS BEGUN
Abi keeps them safe.
One hundred and twenty-two islanders and their three beloved scientists live in harmony, kept safe from a poisonous security barrier with the help of Abi's instructions.
Niema keeps the islanders occupied.
Niema is one of the scientists who remembers what life was like before the fog. She ensures that all of the islanders have a job to do, and everyone loves her. Almost everyone.
Emory can't stop asking questions.
But then one of the scientists is found dead, and their murder triggers the dropping of the security barrier. The only way to reinstate it is to find the killer. But can Emory ask the right questions?
They have 107 hours to solve the murder before the fog sweeps in. Can they stop the end of their world?

Excellent ... I won't give anything else away as the discoveries are part of the joy, but I was engrossed in this high-concept thriller and can't wait to see what Turton does next
Observer
-
Turton's puzzle box draws on every sci-fi classic from Blade Runner to 2001: A Space Odyssey.
As a mystery, it is more intriguing than involving. As prognostication, it seems only too likely to be the shape of things to come.Sunday Times
-
The fiction of Stuart Turton gloriously bends both the reader's mind and the crime genre
Financial Times
-
This story will grip your attention until the very last page and is sure to be another bestseller
Glamour

Woman's Weekly

A mind-bending, genre-blending, boy-that-ending mystery unlike any I've ever read … I feel, as I read a Turton book, like I'm watching a rocket erupt from the launchpad -- I've got a grin on my face and my heart in my throat
