Captivity: A Scottish Dystopia - Paperback

by Nadine Little (Author)

A murdered sister. A broken country. And one woman's agonising path to the truth.

After a protest for Scottish independence ends in assassination, the nation fractures into ruthless factions and becomes a sealed arena where loyalty is currency and survival is war.

Anita Carmichael lives for two things in this hellscape: vengeance, and protecting her sister's legacy, The People's Republic-the only faction without blood on their hands.

But the greatest danger isn't the battle raging outside the border fence. It's the traitors lurking within. And a secret weapon that could end everything.

Betrayed and captured by the most feared faction of all, Anita expects brutality. Instead, she finds a soldier who offers comfort where others offer cruelty. Yet attraction is a liability she can't afford. Especially when his radical leader claims to know who killed her sister.

And the answer won't be given for free.

Captivity is for readers who would enjoy a spicy Hunger Games for adults, with the bleak backdrop of The Road by Cormac McCarthy. Read the first book in the action-packed, slow-burn dystopian romance series The Faction War Chronicles and discover a story of struggle, redemption, and a hard-earned happily ever after by the final instalment.

This book is written in British English and contains swearing, sex and violence (including torture, attempted rape and sexual harassment). Some scenes also include PTSD flashbacks and thoughts of suicide.
