Welcome to London, but not as you know it. Oxford Street burned for three weeks; Regent's Park has been bombed; the British Museum is occupied by those with nowhere else to go.

Lalla has grown up sheltered from the chaos, but now she's sixteen, her father decides it's time to use their escape route - a ship big enough to save five hundred people. Once on board, as day follows identical day, Lalla's unease grows. Where are they going? What does her father really want? What is the price of salvation?

Industry Reviews

Addictive - ELLE

As engrossing as it is chilling, this potent first novel fuses an apocalyptic coming-of-age story with a fierce interrogation of what it means to be truly alive - DAILY MAIL

The Ship is tense, engaging and emotionally charged: I devoured this novel

A beautiful futuristic fable with huge power to haunt and disturb

This original and high-concept coming-of-age adventure brilliantly evokes a claustrophobic future world, while its passionate young heroine fights her way to an unexpected and satisfying ending.
