How do you survive when your only purpose is to give your live to others . . . bit by bit?
In the derelict house next door to a building site, Dawn lives with a young woman who says to call her Mum.
Dawn loves the hole in the roof, where she can always see blue. She loves her book of birds and she loves Mrs Goring, the old lady who lives on the ground floor.
But when Dawn's medicine runs out and Mrs Goring disappears, Dawn begins see her world as it really is.
Next door, the new facility to hold children like her is almost finished. But Dawn wants to live.
Can she escape, find Mrs Goring and the truth about her family before the doors to the Sparehouse open?
A dystopian mystery for readers aged 11yrs and over, set in a world where one huge corporation sells everything, and in Britain, the NHS is a distant memory. The threat is grim, but hope is alive and well.
Is that enough to save a generation of 'spares' like Dawn?
