Book Synopsis
It's the year 2125, and the gritty metropolis of Los Angeles is more divided than ever.
South of Sunset, Oleander Briggs exists in a drab reality of the Seventh Industrial Revolution and the demise of social media, where his monotonous life consists of working the factory assembly line for Fleur Industries-a mysterious company that sells flowers preserved in gold. His future, like so many of his generation, is bleak, but Oleander dreams of more.
When he unexpectedly catches the attention of Mr. Fleur-Fleur Industries' elusive owner-his luck changes as he's offered a job to work directly with the Fleur family at their palatial estate, North of Sunset. There, he encounters eccentric characters, extravagant wealth, and youthful beauty the likes of which he has never seen. The Fleur family may be his ticket to a better life-but at what cost?
North of Sunset asks how we exist in a world where one is forced to choose between living in luxury or the luxury of living.
