I’ve reached my expiration date. Not that it matters. We’re all going to die.
To sixteen-year-old Micka, all words have flavours. Her emotions come with such force that she can’t help but carve them into her skin. The night she decides to kill herself, she meets Runner — a mysterious stranger who makes her question everything she’s learned about the end of the world.

His message is terrifying: It wasn’t some mysterious disease that killed ten billion people. We did this. Humanity sleepwalked into climate disaster and ecocide, just to butcher and rape until blood stained the seas.

Micka is sure Runner is lying. Her instincts urge her to stay far away from him. But he makes her an offer she finds hard to resist.
Award-winning author Annelie Wendeberg delivers a gritty dystopian series that brims with fast-paced action and suspense. Based on climate science, Micka’s world gives a terrifying glimpse into our possible future.
