The Vulpine

Description

Enter a darkly dystopian world full of eerie folklore,

in which illness and difference have been prohibited. But from

deep beneath the earth, a rebellion is rising… Perfect for fans

of Never Let Me Go and The Luminaries.

Ora has always been fascinated by chilling fairy stories of the

Vulpine – the mythical, fox-like monsters

who live below ground, emerging at night to snatch ‘imperfect’

babies and children. Because Ora knows that disability and illness

have no place in her world. To succeed is to be genetically ‘perfect’,

just like her best friend Casta and his family.

Then, one day, Casta’s baby sister disappears. And Ora’s

mother reveals a long-buried secret: Ora herself has a genetic

illness that affects her lungs… And she’s about to be found

out.

Desperate for answers and sanctuary, Ora decides to do the unthinkable

and seek out the fabled Vulpine. And below the earth, she

discovers a hidden world that turns everything she has been taught

upside-down…

A unique and powerful story about stepping into your power and

creating a better world, with a brilliant cast of disabled heroes,

from an author whose own experiences of chronic illness inform

Ora’s.

A chilling dystopian world filled with eerie science fiction

and a sweet, slow-burn romance.

Perfect for fans of Never Let Me Go, A Handmaid’s

Tale, The Hunger Games and The Luminaries.
