Description
They are two strangers running for their lives. Lost on a deserted island and mercilessly hunted, they need to find a way out before being killed.
Omar is a plumber, Shadia a civil servant. They meet on a deserted island where neither remembers when or how they arrived. All they know is that the island is crawling with predators and that their lives are in danger.
As they fight for survival, their mysterious captors give them a choice. They can either stay in a shelter for three years or try and escape the island by facing its unknown dangers.
Choosing freedom over safety, the two make a run for it and meet an old man who tells them that they are part of a human experiment. Now, more than ever, Omar and Shadia are determined to find a way out.
Lost, hunted by ferocious animals, and facing extreme conditions they rely more and more on each other. But they also have secrets. Truths that they have not shared. Can Omar and Shadia uncover the reality behind their situation and find a way out, or will they succumb to their captors' inhumane hunt?
Neanderthals is a thrilling science fiction novel perfect for readers who enjoy a heart pounding story that challenges our views of morality and ethics.
Advance Praise
" Neanderthals: An often gripping tale of love and interplanetary survival: ........ Monier's greatest strength is his ability to write characters who remain sympathetic even as they show the reader the worst aspects of themselves. Although Omar and Shadia are both skilled in different areas, neither of them are superhuman; they're just regular people in an unusual and terrible situation, and the way that their relationship develops feels organic."
