Strand Notes

Mika lives in future London, behind The Wall: solid concrete, fifty feet tall, topped with high-voltage razor wire, and guarded by a battalion of borgs, it was built to keep out the animals, because animals carry The Plague. Or so he’s been told. But ever since Ellie vanished a year ago, Mika has suspected that his world may be built on secrets – and lies. The doubling voices in his head are building to a deafening roar. When a mysterious organization starts recruiting mutant kids to compete in violent virtual reality games, Mika takes the chance to search for his missing twin sister – and the truth. (Ages: 10 & up).
