LoveReading Says

February 2016 Debut of the Month.

Gold mines, the fame of Hollywood, the orange groves, three great symbols of California, three reasons to go there. Now none of them remains. There is no more water and without it nothing can live, but people are stubborn and life endures. Young lovers Luz and Ray struggle on the edges of an empty and collapsing society, until they find a strange child and with her a reason to try and leave the desert for a better life. It is an impossible and heart-breaking journey. This is not just a dystopian thriller. The climactic changes are plausible, worryingly possible. The situations make sense, and make us wonder what we would do if faced with the same. It is an excellent novel for our times; a tale of instincts, twists and betrayals; a compelling piece of writing. ~ Sarah Broadhurst
