Everything Now Depends On You

In Tuppy Morrissey's debut novel, the first instalment in The Backwards Rainbow Series, the Earth of the 2030s isn't too different from our own. But the lives of three men are drastically changed following the discovery of another human-inhabited planet, Tonata, which contains an exact genetic copy - known as a 'link' - of every human on Earth. In 2035, Erasmus Suade attempts to prove to the rest of Tonata that Earth exists. Initially this seems possible, but he ends up threatening his own life in his search for the truth. In 2037, Simon Hastings, who is Erasmus' link on Earth, joins the Backwards Rainbow Group. Their leader makes the bold claim that when someone dies, his link dies within the very next minute. In 2039, this literally life-changing revelation leads Geldof Deity, London's most renowned detective, to investigate the death of Simon Hastings. Simon was found dead three weeks after the sudden disappearance of Erasmus Suade. Featuring a chameo appearance from God and reflecting on the afterlife, EVERYTHING NOW DEPENDS ON YOU considers the human response to new discoveries, on both a personal and global level. However, as his narrative structure weaves between these three storylines, Morrissey considers how human nature remains the same even in the most bizarre and alien circumstances. Everything Now Depends On You is a science-fiction mystery which forgets about war, epidemics and refugees to focus on the individual's impact on mankind, rather than mankind's impact on the individual. Tuppy Morrissey is a seventeen year-old author from London. He began writing Everything Now Depends On You when he was thirteen and published the first edition at the age of sixteen.
