The unnumbered - Sam North

Contemporary London. You know what that's like. But there's another London too, another race: the streets are swirling with them. They have no jobs, no driving licence, no social security, no identity of any sort. They pass us by every day; the unnumbered
Nio is an unnumbered. He's twenty three, and Greek. He's built a home for himself in Coldfall Woods. It's his secret, but not for much longer. The city has eyes and ears. It's coming to get him.
And dark eyed Mila. She's fifteen and lives in a caravan off the North Circular Road. She's an unnumbered too, but she's just bought herself an identity, and works as a checkout girl. It's a start. She's smart. She's going to reach the stars some day. She can feel it in the air.
Lucas Tooth can sense it too. He works his charm on all these women; the hopeful, the sad, the desperate. But only when they feel the fear does it bring him the pleasure. And now it's Mila's turn.
But Nio and Mila fall in love; dreamer and realist. Together they will take on this London and all it can throw at them. But it is not an easy city. It exacts a hard tribute. The city has brought them together. The city could tear them apart.
