'Seventy-Five' is set in a world where a ruthless government has decreed death at the age of 75. The story follows George and Magda, a couple whose life is shattered when their children take sides: Duke works for the government and Ella joins the resistance. As George's 75th birthday approaches, the family must decide whether to accept their fate or risk everything for a chance at a different life. On their journey, George and Magda encounter the possibility of life in an underground world that offers hope and healing beyond government control.
The book deals with the possible realities that can unfold in our future world; both the relentless exploitation of a corrupt government and the tantalising prospect of discovering a new world, whether as mere wishful thinking or as a tangible reality.
