"When the State can dock your lifespan for the slightest misdemeanour, Connor is determined to protect his baby daughter at all costs.

Fast-paced and highly credible, this well-crafted novel will have you gripped to the very last page.

Debut author Clare Evans writes with precision and clarity.

Given current world affairs, this book is a timely reminder to question government control of personal liberty.

Skilful, topical and thought-provoking."

Praise & Reviews

"A wonderfully paced book that I couldn’t put down once I started.

 

When The Numbers Don’t Add Up tackles topics such as overbearing government policies and social media’s impact our lives.

 

The author paints a dystopian vision of Britain that feels very realistic and not far from our own!"

Verified reader

"I rarely post on social media but Len, my favourite character in this excellent book, has shown the importance it can make.

 

Really well written this pacy book takes you to a parallel life that is scarily feasible with the ever increasing use of
technology. What happens when things go wrong? With characters that make you care, this novel is thought provoking but also a cracking good read!

 

Thoroughly recommended."
