About this eBook

After the war in the Parish, Adam is looking forward to a period of peace, but his superiors have other ideas. There are rumours from Oxford and the Cotswolds that Father John - who once almost overthrew Plymouth - is building an army, and someone has to go and investigate.

Arriving in Oxford, Adam is surprised to find a thriving city with a healthy populace and technology not seen since before the fall of The Sisters. He also finds it patrolled by the descendants of the Thames Valley Police, among them Detective Inspector Leonie Mellow.

However, it doesn't not take long for dark events to concern Adam. Murders, paint-splashed graffiti on walls, people going missing - and he can't help but wonder if the past is following him.

Ratings and reviews

This is a great follow-up to Dave Hutchinson's fantastic "Shelter". Gripping, un-putdownable... Great characters, a post-apocalyptic environment that's fully conceived and believable.. also a police procedural, espionage story, a deranged mass murderer, with lots of deadpan humour and a plot that builds in a steady crescendo... really good stuff, like everything by Hutchinson.
