On the Outside — Diana Green

In a not-so-distant future, the privileged live within protective walls, and the rest fend for themselves...on the outside. From a life of relative comfort and safety, Orla is plunged into a struggle for survival. Her newly emerged phasing powers force her to become a fugitive, hunted by government agents, and driven to the edges of society. In desperation Orla joins a band of smugglers. Their caravan could offer the perfect hiding place, or it could be her undoing. Much of that depends on Charlie, top gunslinger and ‘teeth' of the operation. Will he prove to be a valuable ally or just another kind of trouble?
