From the publisher
"A high-concept speculative thriller that takes the best of BLACK MIRROR and SEVERANCE to explore surveillance, capitalism, AI ethics and social inequality." The Bookseller, best of Black Publishing 2026-2027 The anticipated YA debut from Kelechi Okafor. Perfect for fans of Black Mirror and Severance. The year is 2032. Dorcas has her whole life ahead of her - university, career, escape from her suffocating small town. There's only one problem: she has no idea who she wants to be. Then something impossible happens. A being from another world brings a terrifying message: her entire life is a reality show broadcast across the galaxy ... and she's bombing. The audience is bored. Unless she does something extraordinary - anything - she'll be cancelled. Permanently. Now Dorcas has one chance to figure out what makes a life worth living. Before her time runs out. A highly unique, darkly atmospheric dystopian thriller, perfect for fans of Black Mirror and Severance. Themes of surveillance capitalism, AI ethics and social inequality. Kelechi says: 'I want this book to be a story that explores our interconnectedness within the cosmos, and raises the question of: in the technological age of social media and reality television, who do we actually exist for?'
