Claire North shortlisted for the Sunday Times PFD Young Writer of the Year Award.

From one of the most original new voices in modern fiction comes a startling vision of a world where you can get away with anything....

Theo Miller knows the value of human life - to the very last penny.

Working in the Criminal Audit Office, he assesses each crime that crosses his desk and makes sure the correct debt to society is paid in full.

But when his ex-lover is killed, it's different. This is one death he can't let become merely an entry on a balance sheet.

Because when the richest in the world are getting away with murder, sometimes the numbers just don't add up.

From the award-winning Claire North comes an electrifying and provocative new novel which will resonate with readers around the world.

2019, Philip K. Dick Award, Nominated

Eleştirmen yorumları

An extraordinary novel that stands with the best of dystopian fiction, with echoes of The Handmaid's Tale (Cory Doctorow on 84K)

I thought this was going to be a detective type book from the initial blurb but I was so wrong. I really tried to like this book and did stick it to the end but there really wasn't anything. The book moved back and forth so much that I couldn't really keep track of what was going on, perhaps it is clearer in the written version but in the audiobook there was no real indication. The characters weren't developed enough to like. The story was just boring and depressing, such a shame because I liked her other books. If I could get those hours back again I would.

This book is nothing like the initial description!!

Not my favourite North book. The story is told in mixed timelines (and they mix a lot, without warning) and it is very difficult to follow in audiobook format.

Hard to follow

A richly told and compelling narrative, with time unfolding in a thoughtful and effective way. Thoroughly engaging, and an excellent performance by Peter Kenny.

Engaging and thought provoking.

This book is full of characters who are unable to finish a sentence and it drove me mad! I love 'Fifteen Lives' and 'Touch' and Peter Kenny is my favourite narrator, but even he couldn't rescue this book from an incredibly irritating writing style. Having listened to the book, rather than reading it, I wonder how it looks on the page. Are all the unfinished sentences followed by a series of dots....?
The corporate dystopia concept is chilling and believable and the narrative makes its way satisfyingly enough to a conclusion, but the characters remain rather insubstantial, only half-glimpsed amongst their unfinished musings.

Disappointing after her earlier works

Dark, sad and frightening... clearly a play on Orwell’s 1984 but brought up to date so you can actually imagining it happening.

I can’t stop thinking about this
