Synopsis: ***Perfect for fans of Black Mirror and The Handmaid's Tale*** In an America governed by Christian extremists, women's bodies are no longer their own. So when private investigator Felix Strange agrees to take on the case of a young girl indicted for murder after a miscarriage, he doesn't know where it might lead.Nor does he know the dangerous path along which America is now heading...The Fall is a short story prequel to Elliott Hall's cult hit Strange Trilogy, the eerily prescient series which foresaw the rise of the American right.Taking the dark crazy world of LA noir and turning it on its head, The Fall is the perfect introduction to the terrifying dystopian world Elliott Hall has created in The First Stone, The Rapture and The Children's Crusade.
