MINDSLIP is the catastrophe which will hit the Earth at 8.15am GMT tomorrow
It began 650 years earlier when Betelgeuse fulfilled its long-held prophecy to turn supernova. The high-energy radiation causes all creatures on the Earth to swap minds, leaving people in animals, animals in people, men in women and children in adults. The nightmare which follows becomes a social and economic catastrophe.
Geoffrey Arnold becomes a key figure in the government Catastrophe Committee, formed to resolve the myriad issues raised by Mindslip. Power generation, the health service, farming, pay, pensions, education, the banking system and asset ownership spiral into chaos.
In addition, Geoffrey must find his family and save his wife from an imminent premature death brought on by one of the Mindslip effects.
Mindslip is a realistic, frightening and sometimes amusing work of imagination which explores how people and families react to the world being changed beyond recognition.
