The year is 2042, and the long-predicted tipping point has arrived. For the first time in human history, the economic pyramid has flipped: The feeble old now outnumber the vigorous young, and this untenable situation is intensifying a battle between competing cultural agendas. Reporter Julia Davidson-a formerly award-winning journalist seeking to revive a flagging career-is investigating the growing crisis, unaware that her activity makes her a pawn in an ominous conspiracy.
Plagued by nightmares about her absent father, Julia finds herself drawn to the quiet strength of a man she meets at a friend's church. As the engrossing plot of FATHERLESS unfolds, Julia faces choices that pit professional success against personal survival in an increasingly uncertain and dangerous world.
FATHERLESS vividly imagines a future in which present-day trends come to sinister fruition.

      In the not too distant future, America has more senior citizens than young people, which has created a tax crisis. There are some who recommend that the elderly "transition" to death in order to make room for the young who will contribute to the tax base. Journalist Julia Davidson stands firmly in the "pro-transition" camp until she begins to investigate. VERDICT Dobson (founder, Focus on the Family; Bringing Up Boys) and Bruner (Finding God in The Lord of the Rings), have written a thought-provoking read. The idea that traditional families hold more worth than nontraditional families was a bit too heavy-handed for this reviewer, though. Still, this fast-paced thriller will find an audience with fans of Ted Dekker's suspense novels.
