Description

In a world drained of colour, nothing is clear-cut. For Grace, the ordinary has become extraordinary. She's one of a handful of people in the country who see the world in shades of grey. This is the beginning of the 'greyout', or Monochrome Effect, which is rapidly sweeping the world. The cause is pollution and microplastics in our oceans, leading to failing harvests and stay-at-home orders. But there's hope - or so it seems. A government-run study offers a chance for teenagers like Grace who experience intermittent 'colour episodes'. They're promised that they hold the key to reversing the damage. Yet, as Grace soon discovers, the reality is far more complicated, shocking, and dangerous than she could have ever imagined. With its thought-provoking premise and gripping narrative, Monochrome is a compelling dystopian tale that explores the consequences of our actions on the world around us.
