Blood Capital - by Robert Batten (Paperback)

About the Book

Book Synopsis

The melior, shadow-brokers who have been amassing power and wealth for centuries, act to preserve their food-supply: humans. Millions fleeing the blight flock to the newly established, melior-run citadels, never stopping to ask at what price there safety would come.

Generations later, humans and melior alike struggle under the weight of corporate rule. For Callan, the "farm" is all he and his community have ever known. Yet beyond the walls that hem them in, he's sure a truth lurks with bloody consequences. For the covert operative Ling, the Sydney citadel is the perfect location to weave the demise of the corporation and plot revenge for a centuries old bereavement. For Marie, after decades of watching her discoveries abused, an important breakthrough foretells the downfall of the melior's carefully constructed world.

Together, the unlikely three may have a chance to reshape history. All they need to do is the impossible.
