Half the world is in darkness. Only she can save the light . . . the post-apocalyptic bestselling read.

'A brilliant near-future thriller and a really cracking read' Richard Osman
'Will keep you gripped to the very last page' C.J. Tudor
'Wonderful ... the best future-shock thriller for years.' Lee Child
'A stunningly original thriller' Harlan Coben
'A beautifully realised and thought-provoking thriller' The Times
'Intriguing and unusual' Sunday Times
____________________

2059. The world has stopped turning.

One half suffers an endless frozen night; the other, nothing but burning sun.

Only in a slim twilit region between them can life survive.

In an isolationist Britain clinging on in the twilight zone, scientist Ellen Hopper receives a letter from a dying man. It contains a powerful and dangerous secret.

One that those in power will kill to conceal . . .
