Why You Were Taken

A dystopian kidnapping thriller

Perfect for fans of Margaret Atwood and Hugh Howey

There's a reason Kirsten doesn't have any childhood memories.

When twins Kirsten and Seth were kidnapped and separated as toddlers, they grew up feeling empty without knowing why. Now, living in a futuristic city glittering with tension, Kirsten has an unusual gift and a fertility problem. But what overshadows these things is what she calls her 'Black Hole': A painful hollow feeling where her heart should be.

Seth is a brilliant chemgineer and loyal member of Alba: an underground biopunk organization that exposes corporate bullies and black clinics. He has the hollow feeling too, but fills it with other things, like kink-club dancers and the high-tech drugs he designs.

A troubled woman approaches Kirsten with a warning and a key and is later found dead. Was the woman just another victim of the Suicide Contagion, or is there something more sinister at play? The key leads Kirsten to the Doomsday Vault and a hit list of seven people - and her barcode is on it.

Will the scarred assassin be able to stop them from discovering the truth about why they were taken?

Sticky Fingers

12 Deliciously Twisted Short Stories

Perfect for fans of Gillian Flynn and Roald Dahl

Diverse, dark-humoured, and deliciously bite-sized, this compelling collection of 12 short stories by JT Lawrence include:

'Escape' -- a story about about a suicidal baby who knows he was born into the wrong life, and has to get creative to correct the mistake, much to his mother's horror.

'The Itch' -- an intense, uncontrollable, unexplainable itch lands the protagonist in a mental institution.

'Bridge Gate' -- In this poignant and charming short story, a daughter yearns to connect with her absent father through the letters they exchange. She's not put off by his pedantic corrections of her writing, despite the slow reveal that he is less than perfect himself.

'The Unsuspecting Gold-digger' -- a woman gradually poisons her husband so that she doesn't have to break his heart.
