Australia is ruled by the SIF. The Special Investigation Force controls everything. Water, food, fuel … women's bodies.





18-year-old Ora's decision to move in with her aunt is a bad one. She's landed herself in the middle of nowhere with a deluded activist who wants to change the world, one illegal birth at a time. Sooner or later someone is going to die and Ora doesn't know where to turn.





The beach is her only sanctuary and it's here that she meets Jake, thoughtful and experienced, who encourages her to live a little. So why is it that as soon as she starts to have some fun, everything goes dangerously wrong?





A gripping coming-of-age adventure that will leave you on the edge of your seat.





Ora's strength on her journey of self-awareness and self-determination is enough to take your breath away.
