Red a Novel by Jim Laughter In the distant future, some say the near future, North America, Northern Asia, and Europe will see millions of climate refugees from the southern lands trekking northward, and the entire Lower 48 might be under threat from the devastating impacts of "climate chaos" from the rising sea levels to a scary scarcity of food, fuel, and shelter?. Polar City Red is the story of a family seeking refuge in the frozen north, discovering a hidden city deep in the old Alaska Territory; a city made up of outcasts, scientists, farmers, militia, and a very special eccentric hunter. Polar City Red is set in an imagined Alaska in the year 2075. But it could just as well be Tokyo or Oslo or Berlin. Global warming is borderless, and so are our fears.
