Surveillance State: The Escape

By Alan Hawkins

A grounded political thriller set in a near-future surveillance state, Surveillance State: The Escape follows Tom Edwards, taken by the government when he was eleven and raised inside a system built on control, obedience, and fear.

By the time he understands what the Regime has become, he is already part of it.

Now a soldier, Tom is forced to carry out orders that test his limits-and his conscience. Refusing to cross a line he can't come back from makes him a target in a system that does not tolerate hesitation.

Surveillance is constant.

Enforcement is absolute.

There is no margin for error.

As the pressure closes in, Tom must decide whether survival is enough-or whether escape is worth everything.

Relentless and cinematic, this is a story about power, control, and the cost of defying a system designed to break those who resist
