2023 Next Generation Indie Book Finalist for Science Fiction
We have all heard it many times in our lives. Get off your phone! You spend too much time on your phone! But for Will Hadding and his family and friends, being on their phone is the only way to survive. Will's extraordinarily mediocre life is just fine with him. But for his parents who work so hard to give him and his sister more, life couldn't get better once they win the Purquility Lottery.
Winning the coveted prize means a promise of a disease-free and charmed life in a brand-new home inside a perfectly manicured, planned city. But it also means leaving everything and everyone from your old life behind. After the cleansing process, his family is whisked away in a luxurious limousine to start their new life. But for Will, none of this sits right with him.
Will's suspicions intensify when his mother falls gravely ill-and seemingly no one is helping her. Desperate to find answers, Will goes on a mission to find out who the officers of the homeowners association really are. During his search, he crosses paths with a missing "dead" girl, Andy. Along with her two friends, they help Will uncover the truth about Purquility.
With only hours to formulate an exit plan, will he find a way to take down the HOA? Or will he succumb to something much worse?
