The Bottle Stopper

Would you kill for your freedom?

Would you die for it?

Maeve was six when they took her mother away, and left her in the care of her Uncle Lou: a drunk, a misogynist, a fraud.

For eleven years she's lived with him in Falside's slums, deep in the silt of the Falwere River. She bottles his miracle medicine, stocks his apothecary shop, and endures his savage temper.

But as his violence escalates, and his lies come undone, she devises a plan to escape him forever. Even if it means people have to die.

If you love epic struggles for justice and dark dystopian thrillers, you'll love The Paper Duchess series. Grab your copy of The Bottle Stopper and start exploring this dark future today.

"Angeline Trevena, with her ever fertile imagination, creates dystopian visions of the future that are both innovative and chilling."
Tony Benson, author of An Accident of Birth
