Cities of Refuge

In a future too close for comfort, the United Kingdom has been split asunder by climate change and the collapse of the global economy. With Anglia and Essex under water, Wales has been turned into a vast, anarchic camp for refugees trapped behind a 200-mile fence running the length of the English border. Democracy has been suspended, England is under martial law. In the camps there is no law at all.


Yet life goes on. A travelling rock band finds a ready welcome among the lost and dispossessed. But when they take a strange but endearing stranger under their wing, they find themselves caught up in murderous inter-agency rivalry between security services. Fearing for their lives, the band are catapulted into hazardous flight towards the notorious Welsh camps in their search for safety, answers, and a new home in one of the mythical Cities of Refuge.
