Boxed

By Stephen Montal

It's 2035 and Keith, a semi-retired widower, knows that this new world is simply not for him. Digital implants, travel restrictions to save the environment and security cameras at every turn, Keith incurs credit fines almost daily. Alone following the death of his beloved wife, he lives to see his daughter and granddaughter Jess who dotes on his every word and provides Keith with the will to carry on.

But seemingly innocuous events nearly thirty years earlier mean Keith has incurred the ire of very powerful and unpleasant forces. He has secret benefactors who, unbeknown to him, protect him.

Will Keith avoid the inescapable "suicide protocol" or have events finally caught up with him? Either way, this normal man must resist. Jess deserves a better future than the "security" measures that restrict our freedoms.

The question is, will he live to tell the tale?

Boxed is a novel of our age where the reality of life in Britain in ten years is laid bare. Dystopian or a reality? What did you do? Future generations will ask.
