Blurb:

In a dystopian future, cities surrounded by glass bubbles promise safety from deadly diseases. Martina, a resilient sixteen-year-old from Colombia, struggles to support herself and her younger brother after the death of their parents. Especially with the rising cost of the mandatory medications.

But when Martina spots a lone figure outside the safety of the bubble without a hazmat suit, her steadfast faith in their refuge is thrown into disarray. She worries for her brother’s safety. She can’t bear to lose him too. She’s determined to find the truth lurking beyond their sanitized sanctuary and ensure his protection.

Martina encounters unexpected allies on her mission. Among them is Nathan, a nomad whose unconventional ways intrigue her, and Persephone, a determined pharmacy student with a shared desire for truth. As their paths intertwine, Martina finds herself drawn to both.

Will Martina’s quest for answers unveil the salvation she seeks, or lead her into deeper peril? 

Can she protect the people she cares about?

Want a signed copy but shipping from Australia is too expensive?

Nikki lives in Australia and unfortunately it can be expensive sending signed copies to the rest of the world. Nikki recognises this, therefore, she offers a signed book plate in her shop as an alternative.

A book plate is a label that you can stick inside the book. It will be personally signed by Nikki. And since it can be sent as a standard letter without going through the customs process, it’s much cheaper to send than a book. 

Therefore, you can order the paperback from your local store and then order the book plate from Nikki Brooke’s shop to save you some cash.

Email nikki@nikkibrooke.com before placing your order if you’d like Nikki to sign it with your name or the name of someone else.

**Note: a book plate is included FREE in the Pre-order Offer**

The Huxian Fox

Unpublished – Submitted to competitions only

Captain Fan Sung has blown it this time. Not only was she caught stealing from a drug lord, she was also caught kissing his young wife. She needs to get to her ship, the Huxian Fox, and get off the planet—fast.

Princess Eshan’ya is running from The Quain. They have attacked the palace and if they find Eshan’ya, they will kill her. There’s no hiding on this planet, especially not when the royal guards are also looking for her and she doesn’t want to go back to the palace. She sneaks aboard the Huxian Fox.

As the ship enters space, Fan thinks she’s made a clean getaway, but she’s not impressed when she finds her stowaway – even if she is beautiful. She’s even less impressed when the Huxian Fox is attacked by the Quain and the Royal Fleet.

The Quain are intent on taking over the universe, but Eshan’ya plans on stopping them—if only she can convince Fan Sung to help her.
