Description

Hunger has always been humanity's oldest enemy. Now it has been weaponised.

From the hushed corridors of Oxford to the shadowed chambers of Washington, four lives intertwine:

Stefan, a brilliant geneticist who believes destruction is the truest form of beauty. Caroline, his former lover, scarred but unbroken, fighting famine on the global stage. Jonathon, her brother, a political strategist who trades truth for power. Ned, the awkward journalist who sees too much—and can no longer stay silent.

Together they uncover a conspiracy woven into the very seeds meant to save the world. Crops thrive, then collapse. Nations starve. And in the Oval Office, the President weighs not morality, but survival.

Ruthlessly atmospheric and chillingly plausible, this novel asks a single, devastating question:
What if the weapon that ends war isn't a bomb, but the silence of empty fields?
