Publisher's Synopsis

Onion is snatched. Which is proper shit because she still had nearly twenty quid left on her Angry Slut Teen Clothing gift card and now she was never going to get those flamingo-pink leather chaps she'd been eyeing up.

She wakes up chained to an armpit of a river city, earmarked for a skin-trader called The Toymaker.

Surrounded by a creeping rot she has just three days to escape before the sold sticker becomes a brand. Forced into a knife fight with a world that has just pulled an AK47 on her, all Onion has to fight with is; a sewer for a mouth, a rusted up moral compass and a spanking anger that can sucker-punch kindness at twenty paces.

She might survive but probably not. Sour Fruit is a dark dystopian novel set in northern Britain, in a river city called Kingston; a rotting scrap yard of misery.

The VOIDs are forced to live there not by walls or fences but by being invisible in the new digital world. The novel explores ideas about what is home, how friendship can come from strange places and the debts we can't ever pay back.

About the Publisher

Unbound Digital

Unbound Digital

Unbound was founded by three writers: Dan Kieran, Justin Pollard & John Mitchinson. We think people who love books ? primarily readers and writers ? deserve a say in what does or doesn't get published. You may not be aware of it, but even best selling authors are beginning to have very restrictive parameters imposed on the kinds of books they get to write. Put simply, there are lots of potentially great books we're not getting the opportunity to read.
