I finished this short dystopian novel in under an hour. It follows a group of wealthy people who flee to a coastal resort called Termush to avoid a global disaster. The story becomes quite the page-turner as they wrestle with ethical dilemmas and power struggles, illustrating how money can give one a false sense of stability when survival is at risk and how human nature always manages to seep through.
