About the book: 2019 / When a climate catastrophe broke out and warm countries became hot, millions of people flocked north in search of salvation. Marie Bain, who has lost her parents, wanders along with them, hoping to cover ten thousand kilometers and return to her native Scotland. The world instantly lost its kindness: now at every roadblock, at every border outpost you need to prove your right to life, and you should not rely on a revolver obtained along the way; Instincts sharpened to the limit are a much more effective weapon. To withdraw into oneself, to drown out all human feelings, to indifferently pass by a six-year-old mute boy, dooming him to certain death - or to help him, risking paying for it with his own chance of survival? For the first time in Russian!
