The Utopia Series · Book 2 · Published 2025
“The treaty was meant to protect them. It may be the weapon that destroys them!”
Lauren thought she had escaped the island that stole her future. She was wrong.
Utopia has hidden the world’s most famous missing figures for decades, protected by a secret Presidential pact known as the Utopia Treaty. The island promises safety, but it demands silence, obedience, and isolation.
After fleeing the White House, Lauren, Alex and Joe race to expose the truth while the government closes in. On the island, deserters return and ignite a violent revolt — and Hughes, cut off from outside help, retreats into paranoia as his perfect world begins to fall apart.
A failed escape attempt ends in fire and devastation, leaving the Utopians stranded and terrified. With the treaty collapsing and danger rising on every side, Lauren must decide how far she will go to save the people she once called family.
The fight for Utopia's future has begun, and the truth can no longer stay buried.

“An action-packed follow-up, with an excellent contrast placing some characters in a high-profile modern world but not forgetting the old favourites who remain on Utopia. A good, escapist read.”
“Twists and turns that leave you eagerly flipping pages, yet still provides moments of pause for introspection. An ambitious and intelligent work of fiction.”
