The economic powerhouse of The City dominates the nation. Those lucky enough to be born Citizens live a gilded life, working hard four days a week and playing harder for the other three, whilst the nation is ruthlessly governed like a business by The Board.

Journalist Rory Kennet has always felt slightly apart from life inside the electronic walls and finds himself banished to the Outside when, on behalf of a friend, he begins to investigate the mysterious Removal of a blameless civil servant. As Rory adjusts to his new life he vows to discover and expose the truth behind The City's Removals policy. But as he set out on his quest he had no idea that what he was to find out would shed a new light on his whole existence...
