Dasha Gold enjoys a life of indulgence, made possible by her powerful and wealthy parents. But this privilege comes at a price - extreme image control, including cosmetic surgery to transform her into a living logo for their brand.
Presented with a way out, Dasha embarks on a hunt for the truth that takes her across a divided and CCTV-dominated city, in the company of maverick Londoner Latif.
But money talks and the Golds own the media. Who can Dasha really trust
An exciting urban thriller, set in a media-controlled world that could be just around the corner . . .
" ... if you're someone who enjoys a fast paced novel of humour, drama and action in the midst of a thinly veiled social commentary of our surveillance society, as well as a critique of the promotion of cosmetics, then Hamilton has written the novel for you." - Cuckoo Reviews
