“Couldn’t put it down. The London of 2100 feels horrifyingly plausible and Ana is a protagonist worth following into every corner of it.”Amazon reviewer

The story
London, 2100. The floodlines climbed past the Embankment thirty years ago and kept going. What is left of the city has drawn itself upward into the towers, and upward into a government that rations memory the way it rations fresh water.
Ana was not meant to remember. She was not meant to read the old books, or listen to the recordings her grandmother buried under the kitchen tiles, or find the others who had done the same. But the outlaws have been waiting for someone like her.
The Outlaws is the first book in a trilogy about what we keep, what we lose, and who gets to decide the difference.
