It is 2050. Jason and Amanda are top professionals working on an offshore drilling rig involved in the capture of methyl hydrate from the bottom of the Aleutian Trench. They find themselves sole survivors of a catastrophic break-up of their rig, brought about by unprecedented movements of the earth's tectonic plates. A consequent tsunami and triggered volcanic eruptions decimate the planet, wreaking havoc on the earth's ecosystem and atmosphere. Brave New Woman is a story of survival, and how two very different people are cast up on a devastated island in the tropics with nothing but the small accommodation pod they were isolated in. They believe themselves to be alone and they have no choice other than to learn to live and love together. Their drive to build a future existence from virtually nothing is matched only by their own passionate relationship.
