About This Book
Against the backdrop of imminent atomic annihilation, radio broadcasts and official pronouncements spread paralyzing fear and social breakdown. The story follows a couple, Marc and Julie, whose domestic tensions mirror the wider panic as they argue over whether to heed reports while their neighborhood burns. Civil order frays and citizens become nomadic or are pressed back into dangerous work as public rhetoric intensifies. Into this atmosphere appears Toffee, who proposes a small, unexpected plan that draws on a touch of magic, shifting the narrative from anxious reportage and personal strife toward that intervention and its consequences.
