The Last Day by Andrew Hunter Murray

4.0

It's 2059 and the world is in turmoil. Starting in 2019, due to a solar incident, the Earth's rotation slows and eventually stops, resulting in half of the world being in permanent daylight and the other half in darkness. Dr. Ellen Hopper works on a ship conducting studies on the ocean to see what lifeforms still exist in the water. Until one day she gets summoned by her former professor and mentor and returns back to London. the UK hails itself as the last surviving nation. They are in permanent daylight and have dealt with the influx of refugees from other nations. A region of the country has been sectioned off as an American Zone, where former US residents live. Ellen's visit to her professor sends on her a path of investigation that results in her being pursued and shadowed.

This was a fun, non-stop action read. I recommend it to anyone who is a fan of "it's the end of the world as we know it" novels.
