With the government on the verge of collapse, the last Labour Prime Minister ? desperately clinging to power ? decides there is only one way to reclaim the governmentOCOs authority. Relying on dubious intelligence, he instructs the Army to make plans to launch an invasion of the eastern seaboard of the United States of America. As humanity stands on the brink of war, it may well be that we have reached the End of Days. The world of men is at a crossroads: will it be annihilated, or will it survive and be allowed to evolve naturally into a beer-drinking sloth species with no appendages? Ultimately, when the blood stops flowing and the last money-grabbing MP has been stabbed in the head, the fate of us all and of Planet Earth itself will rest in the hands of one man: renegade barbershop legend, Barney Thomson. Praise for Douglas Lindsay: pitch-black comedy spun from the finest writing. Fantastic plot, unforgettable scenes and plenty of twisted belly laughs. ? New Woman This chilling black comedy unfolds at dizzying speed, managing to blend the surreal with the dullness of routine ? Sunday Mirror
