Dan's having a great time spending time with his girlfriend on the beach at an all-inclusive, adults-only tropical resort. Then the sun explodes. And because Dan happens to be the closest person to the microphone when all of the resort guests gather, he ends up becoming the de facto leader of one of the schisms that inevitably forms when the VIP guests start hoarding resources for their final days.
A blurb on the cover of this book calls it Lord of the Flies as written by Douglas Adams, and that's not too far from the truth. It was certainly one of the funnier books I've read about class warfare and the end of the world, and I heartily recommend it.
