What is this book???
3 Answers
I read a book at GCSE a few years ago about a girl who lives in a valley when a nuclear bomb explodes and destroys all surrounding life, except her in the valley. At least, she thinks so, until a man appears in a radiation proof suit. It explores how the only two surviving people get on with each other in the valley (not very well, as it turns out!). It was such a good book, but I simply can't remember what it was called! Please help!

and it's available to buy in the UK (as is the York Notes GCSE crib sheet guide!!)
