Black & White Cover Reveal

Happy Monday! Almost time for the start of another month - hope this summer is treating you well (or winter, if you're reading this in the Southern Hemisphere). Today I'm proud to unveil the cover for Black & White, the upcoming first instalment in my YA dystopian trilogy.



Release Date: 18th September 2017

Blurb: What is the price paid for the creation of a perfect society?

In Whitopolis, a gleamingly white city of the future where illness has been eradicated, shock waves run through the populace when a bedraggled, dirt-stricken boy materialises in the main street. Led by government propaganda, most citizens shun him as a demon, except for Wellesbury Noon – a high school student the same age as the boy.

Upon befriending the boy, Wellesbury feels a connection that he can’t explain – as well as discovering that his new friend comes from a land that is stricken by disease and only has two weeks to live. Why do he and a girl named Ezmerelda Dontible appear to be the only ones who want to help?

As they dig deeper, everything they know is turned on its head – and a race to save one boy becomes a struggle to redeem humanity.

Congratulations on the new release, Nick! I have tweeted it out. Love the cover, and will read it once it is out-- Amazon is coming over to Singapore, and my Kindle will be virginal and empty when I buy it in September. :)
