The Hamilton Public Library (HPL) has released this year's must-read title as
Blaze Island by Canadian author Catherine Bush.
The novel, billed as "an ecological thriller about climate change," is inspired from Shakespeare's
The Tempest. A Category 5 hurricane devastates the eastern seaboard of North America, and characters Miranda and her father, Alan, escape to a cove in Canada's Maritimes, HPL said in a media release.
