| “I WAS MEANT TO COME TO BARLEWIN, BUT I WAS NEVER MEANT TO STAY.”
The half-forgotten streets of Barlewin, in the shadow of the High Track, are a good place to hide: among the aliens and the couriers, the robots and the doubles, where everyone has secrets.
Like Eva, a 3D-printed copy of another woman, built to be disposable.She should have disintegrated days ago... and she hasn’t.
And now her creator wants her back.

| "A brilliant story that celebrates existenceand survival on the newfound edges of life, and love. The fight back against disposability starts here!"
— Jeff Noon
"Daniels' novel earns its comparisons to Philip K. Dick...this is a story that explores what it means to be real, to be human--and to be neither."
— Jeff Somers, Barnes & Noble
“The book probes the nature of sentience thought-provokingly, while also depicting a richly imagined, thoroughly lived-in world…a striking and memorable novel.”
— SFX Magazine
