Zero Day Code

In "Zero Day Code," set in a near-future world facing dwindling food supplies and severe climate challenges, society teeters on the brink of collapse. When a crippling computer virus strikes, a consultant discovers it masks a devastating cyber-attack on the U.S. food distribution by China, aiming to control resources in Southeast Asia. The narrative follows a diverse group of survivors—including an activist, a single mother, and a reclusive veteran—who navigate the chaos and uncertainty of a collapsing civilization. This thriller by John Birmingham explores the extremes of human nature in desperate times, all while raising important questions about survival and morality.
