What to expect
'A cleverly woven tale' The Times
*WINNER OF THE EAST ANGLIAN BOOK AWARD FOR FICTION 2020*
Imagine a world where...
Everything you ate was monitored by the government.
Every step you took was counted.
Your children were weighed every day at school.
Neighbours reported on neighbours and no one was safe from judgement.
Sugar was illegal, and baking was a crime.
Imagine if that world was here... What would you do?
Toe the line or fight for your freedom...
'A captivating and thought-provoking debut' Heidi Swain
