Harry Hartog's review

Following a premise as old as ‘Planet of the Apes’ this confronting possible future updates society morals to the point that if there was no meat left to consume what would the populace have as an option.. Reducing humanity to its basic components for the lip-smacking tastes of those that can afford it may not be on everyone’s literary platter, but this novel’s sensitive portrayal of its main character’s decisions made and the consequences that carries, left me hungry for more (TV series or movie, please)..… - Micheal, Harry Hartog Bondi

Publisher's description

It all happened so quickly. First, animals became infected with the virus and their meat became poisonous. Then governments initiated the Transition. Now, 'special meat' - human meat - is legal.

Marcos is in the business of slaughtering humans - only no one calls them that. He works with numbers, consignments, processing. One day, he's given a gift to seal a deal: a specimen of the finest quality. He leaves her in his barn, tied up, a problem to be disposed of later.

But she haunts Marcos. Her trembling body, and watchful gaze, seem to understand. And soon, he becomes tortured by what has been lost - and what might still be saved.
