But as sensors report a breach in the perimeter wall, even eighty-year-old Rachel Leopold shoulders a weapon and reports for duty. It's a distraction from her urgent research: to save the world from the horrors of climate change. Rachel is in a race against time as she battles Arcadia's enemies, the rising waters and superstorms, and her own mortality. Frostlands takes the reader from the remaining enclaves of North America to the ruins of Europe and what's left of China before concluding with an explosive revelation that forces a reappraisal of all that came before"--Back cover ER -
