Paul Briggs reads and signs his new novel on global climate change and its impact on a group of characters from Chesapeake Bay country.

A few weeks with no sea ice in the Arctic Ocean are enough to trigger a chain reaction that alters the Northern Hemisphere beyond recognition. Isabel Bradshaw, an engineer, tries to find security for her family in an increasingly chaotic world when they are driven out of their home on Tilghman Island.

"This epic story of global pandemonium wisely centers on accessible characters." --Kirkus Reviews

"I haven't read a REALLY good post apocalyptic book in a very long time, and this was the perfect re-entry into the genre. All I can say is I wish there was MORE and more NOW!! I will be watching (and selling) Mr Briggs in the future! Thank you!" --Bonnie S., Bookseller
