Synopsis

"Author Peter Hill is a visionary storyteller. With a background in law enforcement and screenwriting, he brings us a narrative that's every bit as prescient and authentic as tomorrow's headlines. He does it with razor-sharp prose, and he isn't afraid to tackle ambitious themes here: feminism, globalisation, environmentalism."

There is a fine line between genius and insanity.

In this dangerously overpopulated world, terrorism and fanaticism reach boiling point.

Against a background of terrorist plots, political intrigue and espionage, the lives of three powerful women become inextricably entwined.

Fleur Nichols, a beautiful and astute investigative journalist, Wenna Cavendish, an ambitious senior MI5 officer and Simone Gofre, a brilliant lesbian virologist, leave their marks on world events and a stunning revelation will change the course of human history forever.

This apocalyptic thriller takes place in the near future, it isn’t science fiction, it’s ‘faction’, and all the more chilling because you won’t find zombies here, or people suddenly endowed with superpowers, just a cast of realistic characters struggling with the challenging events that overtake their lives.

Can any of the women survive to fight on and escape the disaster looming over humankind?

Killing Tomorrow, the first book in the Evolution’s Path series, is an international terrorist thriller with a fast-moving storyline that alternates between Britain, America, Pakistan and New Zealand.

Although part of a series, this book is also a satisfactory stand-alone story, and it’s absolutely perfect for fans of Tom Clancy, Michael Crichton or Margaret Atwood.

Get this book and discover what could really happen. Tomorrow.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Peter Hill's background is steeped in crime. He was a detective in the Metropolitan Police, London, serving in some of the toughest parts of that city for thirteen years. He also worked at New Scotland Yard in the Company Fraud Department and later the internationally recognised C1 department known as 'The Murder Squad'. In the course of his investigations he travelled widely in Britain, Europe and South America. He left the force at the age of thirty-two, with the rank of Detective Inspector, to become a professional writer, initially as a TV script writer. Peter worked extensively in television for iconic British drama series such as 'Callan', 'The Sweeney', 'Z Cars', 'Public Eye', 'The Bill', 'Special Branch', 'Crown Court', 'New Scotland Yard', and 'Armchair Theatre'. He has been a writer, script editor and producer in the UK and New Zealand, where he now lives. He has written six novels in his own name, which were all published worldwide, in hard and paperback versions and in several translations. These books are all British detective police thrillers set in various locations in the UK and The Hunters, The Liars, The Enthusiast and The Savages in the 'Staunton and Wyndsor' series and The Fanatics and The Washermen in the 'Commander Allan Dice' books are now available as eBooks. These books are all stand-alone stories, but with the same major protagonists. Under the pen name of John Eyers he was commissioned to write 'Survivors: Genesis of a Hero', the sequel to Terry Nation's novel, based on the famous 'Survivors' TV series. Also as John Eyers, he wrote 'Special Branch - In at the Kill', a spin-off from the 'Special Branch' TV series. Both these books are stand-alone stories and it is not necessary to be familiar with the TV programmes to be able to enjoy them. After a successful career in TV drama Peter has returned to novel writing but in a new genre and 'Evolution's Path' is a series of related near and far future crime stories, of which 'Killing Tomorrow' now available as an eBook, is the first. The second in the series, 'The Ladies' Game' and the third, 'Procreation' are also available as paperbacks. All these books are available as eBooks at most major online retailers.
