BOOK DESCRIPTION
Nobody foresaw our country's collapse except for one man.
But why did that man have to be my father?
Mobs are looting and rioting in the streets.
My friends and neighbors are starving.
The store shelves are empty.
Money is worthless.
There are no jobs.
There is no food.
There is no hope.
And I'm tired of keeping secrets.
FROM THE PUBLISHER
TERRIFYING BECAUSE IT COULD HAPPEN TOMORROW...
The coming winter was going to be a bad one and not because of the weather.
Sixteen-year-old Barry Mortimer's life turns upside down when his father suddenly moves the family from their comfortable modern home in the city to a decaying mansion on the outskirts of town. Strange and mysterious events follow.
Why isn't anyone allowed to visit their new home? What is Father doing in the basement and why is he keeping it a secret?
As rumors of skyrocketing prices and food shortages become a hyperinflationary economic meltdown, Barry's world crumbles. Can his family hold together as a nation collapses around them?
WHAT IF MONEY BECAME WORTHLESS? A STORY OF HYPERINFLATION.
Based on the devastating hyperinflation in 1920s Germany, Noah's Castle depicts how a similar economic catastrophe might look in contemporary society.
Written by award-winning author John Rowe Townsend, Noah's Castle tells the story of a family trying to survive the total collapse of the British economy. Money becomes worthless, unemployment skyrockets, and food and other goods become scarce.
As conditions worsen and the population begins to starve, how do people react? When does law-and-order break down and civilized behavior end?
Noah's Castle examines these questions but doesn't provide easy answers, resulting in a thrilling and thought-provoking story of survival.
