Summary:
"Not long from now, in London, Singy and Matthew lead a dull, difficult life. They've only really stayed together for the sake of their six-year-old son, Jed. Then their phones stop working. They aren't able to pay for anything. Even the smart door to their flat won't open. Matthew assumes it's just a momentary glitch, but when the electricity, gas and water are cut off, it's clear something is very wrong. London is no longer safe. People are going missing. Soldiers are on the street. And amidst all this, Signy is determined to escape. She's going to take Jed out of the city to the small village where she grew up. She'll do whatver it takes, if it means her son is safe. But she has no idea what other people will do when the world finally breaks."--Publisher.
