Summary
Eighteen months have passed since the Raxter School for Girls was quarantined. Since Tox hit and pulled Hetty’s life from under her.
It started slow. First, the teachers died one by one. Then he began to infect the students, returning their foreign and foreign bodies. Now, separated from the rest of the world and abandoned to fend for themselves in their home on the island, the girls do not dare to wander outside the school fence, where Tox has made the forest wild and dangerous. They wait for the cure they were promised while the Tox infiltrates everything.
But when Byatt disappears, Hetty will do anything to find her, even if that means breaking the quarantine and facing the horrors that lie beyond the fence. And when he does, Hetty learns that there is more to his history, in his life at Raxter, than he might have believed true.
Review
This gritty and lush debut that chronicles the points of psychological and environmental inflection … weaves a chilling narrative that interrupts readers’ expectations through an expertly elaborated and slow-burning revelation of the deadly consequences of climate change … Survival thriller, post-apocalyptic romance part, and part of the ecocritical feminist manifesto, a striking gut blow from a book.
