About this audiobook
'Life is real...but this is Realer...'
Realer promises a new virtual reality, a safe and sanitised window into a virtual existence without the risks of the real, crumbling, post-pandemic society beyond the door. Sixteen year old Charlotte 'Charlie' Mackintosh is a loner whose father works for the company. He gives her Realer for her birthday – only to be murdered as she watches through her high-tech hood at home. Alone in a tense, post-lockdown world, Charlie has to turn to Realer to find his killers. She's soon trapped in a murderous conspiracy behind a system that's steadily beginning to take over people's lives. Charlie comes to understand that she can only hide from outside dangers for so long. In the end, the only way to defeat them is face-to-face, in the real world. A place she fears more than any.
Audie award-winning author David Hewson's edgy dystopian, near-future thriller gives us a chilling glimpse into what our post-pandemic world could become.
