'Quirky, punchy and paradoxically life affirming... An enthralling tale that looks head on at the end of the world and refuses to blink' Adam Oyebanji, author of Esperance

'I unreservedly loved this book! Masterfully executed, and highly recommended' Fiona Leitch, author of A Cornish Seaside Murder

The world's turned into a lawless free-for-all and you're worried about driving without a licence?

An asteroid is hurtling towards Earth and the human race has just over two months to live. But twenty-three-year-old Haru, stargazer and chronic worrier, is still trying to pass her driving test.

Then she finds a body in the boot of her car: a woman, stabbed and tortured.

There's a murderer on the loose. And it turns out that Haru's driving instructor is an ex-cop with a manic devotion to justice.

So, despite the small matter of an impending apocalypse, the two women team up to catch the culprit, no matter where it takes them.

After all, the world's not quite over yet...
