The Catford Catastrophe Zone by Petra Jacob – Review by Brandy Rymer
The Catford Catastrophe Zone by Petra Jacob
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This book was a very interesting read, based far into the future where the world is very technologically advanced. The world is split into those two areas, the one where everyone works hard and lives richly. Then there is the other area where the people who are deemed lazy, sickly, or just incompetent or bad are sent, where they live impoverished and are exposed to so many illnesses and creatures that are poisonous. Frankie is an undercover police officer who dreams of becoming a superhero and is given advanced technology to become a superhuman. She is sent on a mission in the Catford Zone where the people are impoverished, but there are suspected rebels planning something that needs to be discovered and stopped. Frankie goes on the mission she is asked to take on but has no idea what kind of situation she is being sent to; it is far worse than her worst nightmares. She must learn to adjust to the living situation that she is thrown into while doing her job without being discovered by her roommates or any of the other residents. Will Frankie be able to solve the mystery she was sent to uncover, or will the environment kill her first? This is a great scientific thriller that has surprises around every corner.
