Getting such people-powered systems working, as well as reducing the spread of panic and fake news, relies on education and greater awareness, from farmers and communities to the highest levels of government. “We need people to know what locusts are, what they can and can’t do, how long they live and when they are most dangerous,” says Cressman. Advances in technology are, however, starting to make their efforts more precise. Drones with elastic launchers, which can travel hundreds of kilometres while mapping areas of greenery have been added to the defence arsenal. Then there’s the role of Cressman’s office, which guides the country teams using remote sensing imagery.

Time is a Mother is Ocean Vuong’s second poetry collection, and if his poetry is anywhere near as striking and lyrical as his prose, it is bound to be a new favourite. The collection will be released in April. Amber I don't believe this is actually "Pilgrim 2". I read an interview with Terry Hayes and will post his answer here: In 2001, Hayes was nominated for the Bram Stoker Award for Best Screenplay for his work on From Hell. [7] I wasn’t surprised that the crowd had reacted with silence. It has been my misfortune to witness a number of executions – several by firing squad, two by hanging and one when an elderly man had been strapped into an electric chair and forced to ‘ride the lightning’, as the guards on death row call it – and I can promise you: the terror on the face of a man or woman as everything they had hoped to be vanishes into eternity never leaves you. The memory of it will surface at 3 a.m. when everything you fear most in the world is on its way, coming up the stairs to find you.

Rendition yourself into a pulsating thriller that never lets up as it carries the hero and the reader on an ever more desperate race between time and an all too plausible disaster for the world we live in. Great nail-biting stuff!'--Robert Goddard

Kane travels there to exfiltrate a man with vital information for the safety of the West - but instead he meets an adversary who will take the world to the brink of extinction. A frightening, clever, vicious man with blood on his hands and vengeance in his heart.It has been a long decade for those of us awaiting a follow-up to Terry Hayes’s debut thriller I Am Pilgrim (2013). No other recent thriller has matched its level of excitement: to achieve a comparable adrenaline rush, you would have to abandon your sofa and go bungee-jumping. The tale of an American secret agent tasked with preventing a Saudi terrorist from unleashing a deadly smallpox virus, Hayes’s novel seemed for once to justify the epithet of “epic”, which can usually be dismissed, when applied to thrillers, as a euphemism for “too long”. I Am Pilgrim' is a twelve-course meal of a thriller.... A breathtaking accomplishment of a debut.'--Gregg Hurwitz, New York Times bestselling author of Tell No Lies The Year of the Locust is the second novel in a two-book deal Bill Scott-Kerr negotiated with William Morris in 2008. Transworld acquired UK and Commonwealth rights and the author’s agent is Jay Mandel. The first novel in the deal was I Am Pilgrim, which was published in 2014. My target that day was a brave man, no doubt of it, supposedly a German out of Nuremberg – that beautiful old city steeped in so much dark history – and when I surprised him in the kitchen of his lonely villa, we both knew I had travelled a long distance, both in miles and in years, to arrive at such a deadly rendezvous.
