The Last Day - Andrew Hunter Murray

In his fascinating debut, Murray has crafted something original… an interesting new twist on a post-apocalyptic tale.

I loved the premise of this high-concept thriller… a compelling read with some well-placed observations on the darkness of human nature and survival.  The Last Day will keep you gripped to the very last page.

[A]n atmosphere reminiscent of PD James’s dystopian classic The Children of Men and alternative history thrillers such as Len Deighton’s SS-GB.  As with those novels, The Last Day investigates the “boiled frog” nature of totalitarianism, with Hunter Murray imagining what Britain succumbing to it would look and feel like.  The result is a beautifully realised and thought provoking-thriller.
