America, 2049: A Dystopian World of Intolerable Heat, Shutdown Fossil Fuel Industry, and Implanted Flick at Birth
Summer temperatures soar to scorching heights, forcing the fossil fuel industry to shut down. Humans are implanted with a Flick at birth, enabling them to remain perpetually online. The wealthy reside in the newly constructed Floating City, perched off the coast, while people on the mainland struggle to survive. For Rose, a job as a hostess in the city's elite club offers a glimmer of hope for a better future.
At a Cold War-era research station, a group of highly trained women, known as White Alice, are engaged in climate surveillance. However, the terms of their employment become increasingly uncertain. Meanwhile, in a former oil town in northern Canada, called Dominion Lake, a camp is being built—Camp Zero. This rare source of fresh, clean air and cooler temperatures promises to be the foundation of a new community and a new way of life. Grant, driven by a desire to atone for his family's dark legacy, believes Camp Zero will be the perfect place to start over.
In this thrilling, immersive, and disturbingly prescient novel, Camp Zero delves into the world we have created and explores the path forward. As characters navigate a landscape filled with agendas and uncertainties, they must confront the question: Can falling in love be the most radical act of all? With its thought-provoking narrative and compelling characters, Camp Zero offers a thought-provoking exploration of the choices we face in a world on the brink of change.
