Summary

A gripping near-future thriller in a world turned upside-down … for fans of Suzanne Collins, Emily St John Mandel, Bong Joon-ho’s Snowpiercer.

Welcome to the Arcadia.

Once a luxurious cruise ship, now it is home to the stranded. For forty years, they have lived, and died, on the water.

A place of extreme haves and have-nots, gangs and make-shift shelters, its people are tyrannized by a country they can see but can’t get to. A country that says it doesn’t want them.
