A powerfully imagined futuristic thriller. The Keepers conjures up a menacing twenty-second century England fragmented by civil war and a Great Devastation. The law of the land is in the hands of the Keepers who enforce peace and happiness at any cost. To want knowledge and freedom is treason. To rebel is the ultimate crime. This is the story of Esther, a member of a secret network of dissidents, who risks life and love to break free, for herself and for the future; of Callum, a powerful rebel who mysteriously appears and demands Esther's collaboration. Against a background of chilling hostility and suspicion, a fragile trust develops united by one aim: to overthrow the regime of the Keepers. Building up to a searing climax, this is an unputdownable novel about power, betrayal and a passion for freedom which ultimately transcends both.

"A highly observant writer. Her characters have a life of their own right from the start... plenty of unease and all the tension of a Cold War spy thriller"

"A menacing thriller set in the 21st century, and is a welcome addition to her prolific writing which ranges from poetry to biography and social history"
