Gretchen Eick of District 5 is the author and will be present for the discussion. The library has copies so no one needs to purchase the book.

The novel is about asylum seekers in London in the post-Brexit years of an Ultra Right party's dominance of British politics. When a Syrian woman journalist disappears, her partner's search for her leads into the legal and illegal refugee community and to a small group of Members of Parliament willing to investigate what is happening in the privatized detention centers. Investigations that ensue uncover disturbing activity at Poton Downs, a top secret British weapons laboratory, and the Ultras' alarming increase of surveillance. Is she still alive? Will Ana be found? What about the tens of thousands of others seeking asylum? And their children?
