Nobody leaves Osiris.
The city of Osiris rises above the cold waters of the South Atlantic ocean, a beacon of hope in a world ravaged by climate change. Some say she is the last city. Others claim life still exists beyond the waves. Either way, Osiris has lost the world and the world has lost her.
Adelaide Rechnov is a daughter of the city’s ruling family and a darling of high society. Yet her glamorous world is shattered when her twin brother disappears in mysterious circumstances.
Vikram Bai grew up in the slums and has seen too many of his friends die from the cold and starvation. Now he risks his life to fight for a better future for those the city has abandoned.
When their lives collide, Adelaide and Vikram find themselves caught up in a conspiracy that could destroy the city - and the lives of everyone in it.
"A glittering first novel ... gripping, readable, beautiful, politically engaged and wholly accomplished." - Adam Roberts
