Let me start by saying that I don't generally read self-published books and since I don't see any publisher's info, I'm making the assumption that this is one.  If not, I apologize.The author posted a link on one of the Kindle forums along with a brief description and, since I liked the plot summary, I downloaded the sample.In spite of the fact that it was self-published and the fact that I did NOT like the cover art, I was pleasantly surprised.This is a unique take on a Dystopian Future.  I think the author's plot summary stands for itself, so I won't repeat it here.Her take on near-future London is gray and bleak, but has an underlying current of humor and irony.  It's a well thought out world and I enjoyed reading this.I'll simply say that reading Lisa Hinsley's work has caused me to think twice about summarily dismissing the 99 cent self-published Kindle authors.I still hate the cover (Sorry, but it has Nothing to do with the book!) and the book can use a little tightening here and there, but I'm glad to have discovered this one.
