The world as we know it has devolved into violence. Society has crumbled. Riots, mass murder and destruction are rife.

After escaping the violence of London, Anya hides away on an isolated Welsh island, with her husband, daughters, and dog. Life is idyllic—as long as she doesn’t look too closely at all she has lost.

Thousands of miles away in the Middle East, Niamh is struggling to find her way home to the UK. In a world with limited transportation and communication, she finds refuge in a walled city, run by women. But the security of the walled city is a cover for a much darker secret that hides beneath the surface.

As cracks begin to appear in Niamh’s safehouse, Anya too must face the imminent collapse of the walls she has built to keep her family safe. Borders are reopening, threatening the seclusion of her isolated life. Faced with the possibility of more violence and death, Anya must make a decision that will shake her family to its core. From debut novelist Rebecca Miles Henson, The Cracks We See Through is a story of home, of hardship, and of finding love and light in the darkest of places.

'Cracks' was written in a style that combines the poetic with prose, and the talented author/narrator presents us with the tale of two women struggling to survive in a world dealing with economic and social collapse. She depicts a society rife with scarcity and hardship, where the term ‘safety’ is often twisted to justify paranoia, inequality, and oppression. It also cautions the reader that even the best of ideas can go terribly wrong, and that the average person, craving nothing more than a normal life is often either the victim, or the horrified bystander.
