Overview

Shimmer makes you forget-until it takes everything. In the near-future and rain-soaked New Albion, shimmer is both escape and enslavement-and the Bureau for Virtue, always watching, ensures the world stays hooked. Anouk Walker only wanted to survive until her next fix. But when a Bureau raid tears her closest friend away, she's pulled into a Resistance whose ideals are as compromised as its methods. Time is short; she must rescue Jimmy before the Factory erases who he is. To bring him back, she must confront the Factory itself-a dark place whispered about in fear, where shimmer's horrific origins are hidden. What begins as a desperate rescue becomes something larger: a fight over truth, loyalty and the human cost of hope. As the Bureau closes in and the lure of shimmer calls from the darkness, Anouk must decide not just who she's willing to save, but what she's willing to become. The Midnight Factory is a gritty, haunting and psychological dystopian thriller about addiction, complicity and the fragile rebellions we build with the people we refuse to abandon. Perfect for fans of Margaret Atwood, Suzanne Collins, and P.D. James.
