The End of Men
by Christina Sweeney-baird (£14.99, HB, Harpercollins)
It’s 2025 and in Glasgow Dr Amanda Maclean is treating a patient with flu. He’s dead three hours later. As this continues to happen to every male on her ward, she raises the alarm, but soon the virus is threatening to wipe out men everywhere. With women unaffected by the ‘plague’ we see how they go about fixing what is broken in the world. Astonishing. This will make you think – a lot!
