'We have gone so far down the slippery slope of progress, that we all now need to call a halt. We are slaves to technology, we are polluting our planet at an alarming rate, and too many of our leaders are concerned with lining their own pockets rather than enabling hardworking citizens to thrive. Even more astounding is the emerging evidence that responsibility for the glitch lay, not with cyber-terrorists, not with the #isolators, but with our own government. Friends, there is a way forward ...' Robin FitzWilliam, summer 2025 Set after the events of the glitch, Miranda investigates who is behind the series of attacks on national infrastructure in a race against time to prevent a total lockdown of technology. Her arch enemy, Robin, a misfit who is bold enough to speak out, and who lures mavericks into making an ethical stand to challenge the status quo, might be her only hope. Now, framed with murder and on the run from the authorities, Miranda is determined to get as deep into Robin's campaigns as she can, to live and breathe Robin, not only to be her shadow, but to be her. Meanwhile, #isolate is gaining momentum, playing out in the countryside and the cities against the backdrop of a looming general election. An ingenious algorithm is used to promote #Spoiler: 'Legitimately spoil your ballot paper and be counted. Make a difference!' How is it all linked? But more importantly, who can she trust?

Jill Grimly, the dedicated acting headteacher, teeters precariously between failure and success, assisted by one of her devoted pupils, Ayiesha, a girl with special needs. The inspection slides into a fiasco; who is the blackmailer, and who is the fool in the school?' ‘It was like my heart & my whole experience of teaching were captured in this book’ ‘The story highlights absurd bureaucracy in inspection and how outcomes can be manipulated so that the final report ends up not reflecting the school at all!’
