Puja Guha, C. E. McKenna, and Raymond J. Brash -- "On Fire and Under Water"

Our world is changing dramatically before our eyes. Increased average global temperatures have wreaked havoc on ecosystems, economies, and people's lives. Fires rage. Flood waters rise. Storms and heat waves are occurring out-of-season and are becoming increasingly more dangerous and more frequent. Still, some politicians, some pundits, and some corporate oligarchs continue to deny reality and refuse to take responsibility and necessary action to mitigate this existential crisis. Those who did the least to cause this crisis will suffer the most from its consequences.

On Fire and Under Water is a crime fiction anthology exploring the intersection of climate change and crime, through the lens of fifteen short stories from some of today's best crime fiction writers. The stories contained within this anthology peel back the curtain on the ways in which climate change impacts real people in their most desperate hour. Some say the world will end in fire. Some say flood. In On Fire and Under Water, you get both.
