Utopia
Simon Burleigh
£8.99
The book is based on a fictional utopian town, Billstone, where there is superb air quality, good transport facilities, fast internet connectivity, entertainment and other criteria required for a good standard of living. This story is loosely based on the life of a couple, Christian and Jane Malford, who own a farm and supply farm produce to other establishments in the town. This couple is hardworking, law abiding, loves the town and will do anything to help in maintaining the city's quality for good living. At any given opportunity, they also record their works for their own personal online channel.
After the election of the country's prime minister, the spotlight is shifted to the election of a mayor for this town. The council is responsible for holding a free and fair election. One of the four candidates contesting the election is Jane Malford as an independent candidate. The other three are from the Conservative Party, the Labour Party and the ruling EMG Party. With the loving and solid support from her husband, Jane started her campaign and everyone seems to agree on her agenda of having more facilities for the people and invigorating the already deteriorating conditions of the town's lake, the children's playground and reopening entertainment facilities such as running track, squash court and pool and creating additional jobs in the process. The other three candidates have also their own initiatives for the city.
Who won the election and became the new mayor of the town? Do the majority people of the town agree with the developmental works taken up by the new mayor? Does the much hyped free and fair election always find the person who truly represents and understands the people's wishes and aspirations?
This is the first book in a trilogy that follows the life of Christian and Jane Malford as they experience the changing world around them.
