The novel chronicles the terrifying consequences that unfold when a population is exposed to the spectre of radiation danger, tracking the cascading human responses — fear, chaos, and survival instinct — that give the book its title. Hodder-Williams, a British author known for his techno-thrillers rooted in scientific plausibility, crafts a tense and urgent story that argues powerfully for the fragility of civilised order under existential threat. Written with immediacy and moral weight, this is a novel that resonates far beyond its era, confronting readers with the very real human cost of the nuclear arms race.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48893806313691,"sku":"2026100006396-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/2fb798ad-eb55-466a-91b6-3bcafb69612b.png?v=1782040307","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100006396-secondhand-chain-reaction","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
