Description

From the WINNER of the Green Stories Prize

As the world recovers from the Melt, the ArkTech Territory stands as a bastion of hope. But when a glitching AI with a fondness for dad jokes starts asking awkward questions, Charlotte Vance learns the answers are no laughing matter.

An AI, an investigator, and a geneticist walk into a library...

It's the year 2101, and half of England is underwater. The horrors of the Melt are fading into memory thanks to ArkTech - the company that saved the world.

For Charlotte Vance, ArkTech is the only home she's ever known. So when Ben, the company's curious AI, starts asking awkward questions about human behaviour, she's happy to help.

But when she investigates a geneticist stealing pages from library books, Charlotte stumbles upon secrets that force her to confront her past and threaten to shatter her faith in the company she's always trusted.

Charlotte will have to make a choice - and the wrong decision could cost her everything.

Artificial Selection - a thrilling near-future mystery packed with heart, humour, and suspense.

What Readers Are Saying...

"In the top echelon of near-future storytelling. Looking forward to the next one."

"This is a well-written story with a good plot and believable characters. I found it to be an excellent read."

"Honestly, I devoured it in one go, in just a single day - it was that good. The world-building? Absolutely brilliant... Charlotte Vance is such a relatable character. She's flawed, smart, and determined, and I was completely rooting for her... The humor was spot-on too - not overdone, just enough to balance the story's emotional weight. And that ending? Perfection. It left me feeling hopeful, which is rare these days, isn't it?"
