Overview

An apocalyptic family drama simmering with suspense

My mother Florence loved the city, and it loved her. Until the earthquakes began and the Turn flipped our world upside down. Until leaving became our only hope of survival. She’s slipping away more each day. I can feel it.

The tide threatens to take me with her, but I’d be lying if I said I’d rather be anywhere else—with Florence is where I belong.

Uprooted by the Turn and on the run, we have to choose: surrender to a new beginning on a mysterious island thousands of miles away and leave our delicate past behind, or salvage the remains and try to find our way back home.

Buy it now! Immerse yourself in Florence and Joanna’s harrowing journey to the Isle of Burtonshire.

R. M. Carpus is the author of the sci-fi family saga, THE ISLE OF BURTONSHIRE series, and co-founder of Impossible Things Publishing. A nomadic spirit, she’s lived all over the U.S. and currently resides in Philadelphia, where she attends St. Joseph’s University. She grew up in the South and feels right at home on a porch with a glass of sweet tea and a plate of fried green tomatoes, though her heart belongs to the moody Pacific Northwest, where she once lived and loved in a cozy cottage in the woods. When she’s not writing, she’s watching classic movies, planning road trips, or cuddling up with her animals and a book. She loves Jesus, the ocean, British humor, and retro everything.
