PARADISE INTERRUPTED - Goodwin, Brad

. .

Résumé :
Ever feel like you need to take back control... The books opens in the year 2055 in Australia's Hockalugie Bay caravan park. Randall's life has gone from pure gold to the lowest point he'd ever known. Suffering from an illness he can't control and an extreme awareness his life was meant for so much more, he sets out to take back a past he can't recall. The world no longer resembles what we know today, most people live in squalor, overpopulation is rife and strict government controls swing further in favour of the wealthy and class structures. The worlds countries and population are under the control of a single computerised entity called 'The System' that drives all facets of everyday life. At the centre of all of this is one of today's widely held conspiracy theories of the New World Order, mixed with interconnecting legends and myths. The history and interaction of these have a major impact on our protagonist - Randall. Played out as an Action Conspiracy Thriller, a ragtag group of friends have survived despite overpopulation and a shift back to specific social classes. The niceties of human interaction has degraded to individual selfish agendas, as political correctness is a now a construct of the past. Along the way he'll discover his soul searching wasn't in vain. He is reintroduced to his past life and will uncover what his role was in developing this New World Order. To get back what he wants and to change his future he will need to break all the rules. Sometimes all that's needed to have a massive impact worldwide begins with a small insignificant ripple and a Leap Of Faith. As Randall undertakes this epic journey of self-discovery, he is fully aware that that once they reach their ultimate goal of 'Eden' this will not be the conclusion of this adventure. Loose ends are always required to be eliminated.
