THE WEATHERMAN

​The Colony is split into four sectors. Sector A is always sunny, Sector B is always icy cold, it always rains in Sector C, and in Ooze's sector, Sector D, everywhere is covered in fog – very thick fog.  The Colony Executive prohibits residents from moving from one sector to another, except in special circumstances. Even if Ooze could move sectors, he can’t afford to live anywhere else. 

​​​​

In this sci-fi thriller with a twist of urban fantasy set on a far distant planet, Ooze, a teacher, stumbles upon a young woman, Sestra, who appears to be lost in the fog. He can tell immediately that she’s not from his sector, by the quality of her clothing.  Fearing for her safety, she accepts Ooze's offer to wait at his house until the density of the fog reduces. He discovers that Sestra is from the affluent Sector A and she persuades him to journey across Sectors C and B with her to her own sector, in defiance of the colony’s immigration policies. It's a risky venture but Ooze needs some excitement in his life.

 

As well as negotiating the dangers of illegally crossing sectors, the pair find themselves pursued by the Weatherman, a relentless assassin who is determined that they shouldn’t reach their destination.
