Book excerpt: A dark but playful journey to post climate change fortress suburbia. An enclave of outrageous entitlement defended by a community hell-bent on protecting its insatiable affluence from an increasingly desperate outside world. A terrifying home invasion forces Tom and his young family to flee the crumbling, crime-ridden inner-city for a fresh start in Arcadia; an idyllic suburb nestled on the city fringe that offers security and a sparkling new civic morality. Arcadia's refreshing way of life quickly begins to tarnish when Tom stumbles upon some harsh and unpalatable realities that underpin the suburb's affluent lifestyle.
