"A brilliant and believable dystopia, a 21st century version of 1984 or Gilead from The Handmaid's Tale ." What if life had a use-by date? A New World Council runs the planet, a perfect world in their view, where everyone and everything has a time and place-even death. Blythe Harrell is a man very much on the inside of the system-but the more he sees, the more broken he understands things to be. Yet to challenge anything is to challenge it all. Even his own place at the very top. Through medical advances, most life-threatening diseases have been defeated. Yet underlying the whole system, a human-cancer grows. When Blythe discovers his wife is expecting, their unborn child carrying one of the last incurable diseases-a death sentence to most-he's forced to confront the truth about the world around him. The 19th novel release and 7th stand-alone thriller by International Bestselling Author Tim Heath. Early reader feedback: I really enjoyed this dystopian. It's an interesting take on the evolution of humanity, especially considering the pandemic we're are currently facing. Pre-programmed life spans proclaiming equality for all, guaranteed employment and a huge retirement package... What could possibly be wring with that? As ever, this book is beautifully crafted. Great character and world building. Lots of different characters who seem to have nothing to do with each other are gradually brought together in an intricate way. Gripping and intriguing this is a fabulous read. Interesting read on a futuristic world that has cured many of the woes of the world. What they haven't resolved is the people being divided into different classes. As Blythe makes the journey to resolving the class divide, it is an interesting view into the psyche of the human race. Enjoyable all the way to the finish, in a genre I spend little time reading.
