Wanted (Flick Carter Book 1)

Description

Meet Flick Carter.
They say she murdered her family.
She didn’t.
They’re gonna hang her anyway.

150 years after The Collapse, the Information Age is long gone; the clouds of data that once drove humanity are little more than ash. The few remaining people get by as best they can in their fortified towns, improvising or scavenging through long-derelict ruins. This is the world of the Kingsmen, elite enforcers with the power of life and death, and the Scavs, outlandish scavengers who they say will hunt you down and murder you, just for a trinket.

Sixteen year old Flick Carter has saved the life of an injured Scav. But it’s not just the Kingsmen who want to get their hands on the boy and his secrets; there are forces far more dangerous who will stop at nothing, not even murder.

For Flick, the small Oxfordshire town of Faringdon is no longer safe. Wanted for murder, and with no one left she can trust, she must run. Or die.
