Description

Knife Edge is a powerful and thought-provoking novel that explores the complexities of a divided society. The story follows two families, one from the privileged Crosses and the other from the marginalized Noughts, and delves into the hatred and violence that can arise from their differences.

The novel is set in a world where the two groups have been separated for generations, and the tensions between them are simmering just below the surface. At the heart of the story is a young woman named Sephy, who is forced to navigate the treacherous landscape of her own family's history and the prejudices that have been passed down through the years.

This is a story about the destructive power of hate and the redemptive power of love, and it is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in exploring the complexities of human relationships and the struggles of growing up in a divided world.
