This book went on a wild but fun post-apocalyptic ride. Most of the world has been annihilated by a toxic fog. The survivors live on a beautiful island.
Then one day, there is a murder, but everyone’s memories have been wiped so they don’t know who did it. In order to stop an actual doomsday clock (think Siri but with the ability to kill everyone at once) from ending all remaining life, they have to solve the murder with the clues available.
I was telling someone that I had requested this book thinking it was related to the 2023 Hulu series, A Murder at the End of the World, which I just loved. They’re not in the same universe, but they both do mention rich people finding ways to survive the coming environmental disasters caused by global warming, so that was interesting.
I love cozy mysteries and this one is sort of locked room/And Then There Were None-y in that there’s only 122 people on the island so it has to be one of them.
Special thanks to Netgalley and RB Media for an advanced audiobook copy in exchange for my honest opinion.
