Résumé
A beautifully-written dystopian thriller set in an underground bunker.The bunker is a place of safety.Wolfe is the bunker's resident pharmacist. While the inhabitants wait for the outside world to heal, she doles out ibuprofen, sanitary towels and Xanax - all… under the watchful eye of the increasingly erratic and paranoid leader. The bunker is a place of hope.But when the leader starts to ask things of Wolfe, favours she can hardly say no to, her world is thrown off its axis once again. Forming an unlikely alliance with the young Doctor Stirling, her troubled assistant Levitt, and Canavan - a tattooed giant of a man who's purpose in the bunker is a mystery - Wolfe has to navigate the powder keg of life underground, knowing her every move is being watched.The bunker is a place of survival.It's not long before Wolfe is forced to question the sacrifices she's made for her own personal survival, and how much more she is willing to give to stay alive. The bunker is a place of danger.(P) 2022 Hodder & Stoughton Limited
