Battle Ground

Wishing Shelf Book Award 2019 FINALIST

Sixteen-year-old Bex Ellman has been drafted into an army she doesn't support and a cause she doesn't believe in. Her plan is to keep her head down, and keep herself and her friends safe - until she witnesses an atrocity she can't ignore, and a government conspiracy that threatens lives all over the UK. With her loyalties challenged, Bex must decide who to fight for - and who to leave behind.

The Battle Ground series is set in a dystopian near-future UK, after Brexit and Scottish independence.
