Description
In 2048, medical science has overcome all the diseases and limiting conditions of old age. In the exclusive community of Wellowfern, radical life extension has turned from distant dream to near reality and competing forces are lining up to impose their widely different visions of the future. Isabel is a loyal and influential resident who knows about corporate intrigue and the power of self-interest. She now has to figure out who is pulling the strings, which side she is on and how best to defend her safe haven and her eccentric, misfit friends, as the high-level infighting threatens to overwhelm them.

Person
Lynn Watson is a social scientist who spent the early years of her career developing innovative housing and support services for people leaving long-stay residential institutions. She later moved into a research role, completing a PhD and advising public authorities and others on policy initiatives and strategies. Her novel Lifespinners was inspired by a fascinating question: What will happen next, when we have eliminated the diseases and conditions associated with ageing?
