The year is 2034. The state has absolute control over life and death, and the mysterious "Winston" watches over everyone. Sixteen-year-old Florence works with total conviction for the so-called Senior Service, whose mission is to identify and kill elderly people who refuse to end their lives voluntarily to make way for the younger generation. But then Florence falls in love with Eric. And she begins to question the system.

In this final book, bestselling author Philip Kerr delivers not only a tribute to Orwell’s classic but also a highly topical novel—demonstrating that the power of love is stronger than any form of oppression.

Published posthumously originally in German - as of summer 2026 there is no official English translation available
