Cloud Cover Mary Letts

Cloud Cover transports us more than one hundred and fifty years into the future, to a dystopian world where Motte has lived alone on an arid, mountain island since roughly aged eleven. She is beginning to suspect she could even be the last human survivor - when events abruptly prove her wrong. Blending sci-fi drama with fantasy and thriller, it portrays the struggles of a small, disparate group of individuals who initially share little except the will to survive against all odds. With the backdrop of earth's climate under siege plus danger from enemy forces who still retain vestiges of more advanced technologies, their interrelationships develop in complex, unpredictable and sometimes touchingly humorous ways.
