The concept is so original and so gripping that I cant get it out of my head…

Britain is populated by genetically engineered neuts – no males, no females.

Joe is a boy – an anomaly who should have been destroyed in the pregnancy pod, or given corrective surgery as soon as he was born. Rescued by DiG, an underground network, hes nurtured to full-term and handed over to his parents. His differences must be kept hidden.

But now his body is changing, it wont be possible to pass as a neut for much longer.

The heart-wrenching decision is made – he must go to the island, where theres a secret community of others like him. The perilous journey to get there isnt the end of Joes troubles. Its just the start.
