Could you condemn one child to save another?
In a near-future Europe fracturing under climate change and far-right politics, biologist Lina Stephenson works in the remote Rila Mountains, safely away from London State. When an old enemy dies, Lina's dangerous past resurfaces, putting her family's lives at risk.
Trapped with her vulnerable sister alongside the dead man's family, Lina is facing pressure from all sides: her enemy's eldest son is determined to destroy her in his search for vengeance, whilst his youngest carries a sinister secret...
... But the forest is hiding its own threats and as a catastrophic storm closes in, Lina realizes that if she is to save her family, she must become a monster.

One of my favourite reads of the year so far: the personal and political collide as a former activist with dangerous secrets finds herself cooped up with the family of a murdered fascist Minister. This dystopian thriller is relentlessly tense, with big themes and a lot of heart; and exquisite writing that evokes the remote mountain forest setting.

Dense in atmosphere, rich in characters, brilliant in concept and haunting in execution, This is Our Undoing is a fantastic first outing from an author whose work I cannot wait to see more of!
