Sisters of No Mercy

Mega-storm Martha has wreaked havoc and it's harder than ever to find a home. Hapless Pinky, Del – mother-hen and mentor – and the ever-resourceful and sometime sleuth Almond are members of Sisters of No Mercy. A band of vigilantes, a pack of thieves or a new wave commune, this underground network has a fresh target: heir to a mining fortune and property mogul Dirk Trench. Can these underdogs take on the establishment and win? Vincent Silk's zingy debut novel fuses climate fiction and hysterical realism with all the tension of a carefully planned and finely executed heist. Written with humour, stinging social observations and surprising insight, Sisters of No Mercy announces Silk as an exciting new literary voice. 'Bubbling over with warth and Cory Doctorow-ish futurist wit,' Jane Rawson, author of From the Wreck
