Produktbeschreibung
In 2018 the world was thrown into a recession so severe that governments could not work out a solution. Desperation and poverty inspired social networks to create a world that ran on the principles of anarchism. This was ended only by the rise of CorpGroup, an Eastern initiative that created the new Eco-World Order. Through a series of encounters, the boundaries of time are erased to offer a captivating insight into the complications of love and friendship. Jess Rivington and the people in her life offer a contrasting account of the world we know and life after the tipping point. In a population which believes segregation is fundamental to their development, there is no desire to question the underlying principles of the Eco-World Order. Jess alone must challenge the system and rescue the man she loves by ending his days as a white slave in another District. In persuading modern society that there is still a place for humanitarian assistance, she must prepare to lose everything.
Autorenporträt
After the breakdown of my seventeen-year marriage I became a single mum of three children and the full-time carer of my elderly father. I often dreamed of how much easier my life could be if we only had more money. On Tuesdays I would line up at the local Salvation Army, where I had previously volunteered, to do my grocery shopping. The limit was one bag per person so it was hard to decide what items to choose as I needed to feed us all on a tight budget. After having enough of being on 'struggle street' I took the plunge and started my own cleaning business. Years later and I now have an amazing team of girls working for me. Fortunately, through this experience, I was given the opportunity to view the world in a completely different light. I am so grateful for everything that has happened and look back on earlier days with nothing but pride. I have met some amazing people and made connections that will stay with me forever.
