Soon after Andrew Carver's fourteenth birthday, the nation is devastated by a meteorological cataclysm—referred to as "The Cold Tide".Ten years later, Andrew is reconnected with a childhood friend; a meeting which sets in motion a mad dash to unlock the mystery of the altered weather, a technologically booming sea-side town, and his missing father.~"Andrew Carver and The Cold Tide" is a Victorian Gothic coming of age mystery adventure, with an ounce of steampunk and a dash of fantasy.Inspired by the poetic prose of Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451, the pedal-to-the-metal narrative of Breaking Bad, and the ethos of decadent and dark Romanticism writings.
