“When chaos bursts into stability, tragedy is unavoidable.” In the City, every resident receives a script of their own life, and they must unflinchingly follow it. Mutiny and breaking the script? No, impossible… But what happens if you go against the City and the Ministry? Adam Green is an ordinary guy; on his day of majority, he receives the script for his future. He hopes for an interesting job, but instead he gets the role of a informant—and now his duty is to report people’s secrets to the Ministry. Adam decides to help the unfortunate ones under his surveillance, not knowing what it could lead to.
Meanwhile, in a world without crime, where everyone’s fate is written by law and all scripts are perfect, people suddenly begin to disappear… The new novel by Laura Keely is captivating and dizzyingly fast-paced. Just like in the novel “In a Loop of Time,” the author weaves topical themes into a sharp plot. “No one is free and no one is safe. A happy life with развлечениями и удовольствиями is not in the state’s plans. Balancing between a tense thriller and a classic dystopia, the author managed to create a gripping work that is relevant like never before today. Who knows—maybe that’s what a totalitarian society of the near future will look like?”
“Who did you dream of becoming as a child? Forget it! In this story, you don’t get to choose. From now on you only have a script. It will tell you how to live. Don’t like it? Well, there’s no way out. Together with the heroes, you’ll end up in the City’s dirtiest corners, from which you can hardly get out—so be careful.”
