Sample text

Hen was awake. The beds were so thin and stiff that she couldn’t get comfortable. If she lay on her side then her shoulder hurt, if she lay on her back then the mattress jabbed at her pelvis, and if she lay on her front she ended up worrying about smothering herself with her own pillow. She’d been twisting in circles for what seemed like hours now. Outside, the sky had turned brown from the lights of some distant city. The lights seemed wistful, a suggestion of something possibly exotic. Two beds down, Izzy made a faint whistling noise through her nose and began to scratch.

Jules’s voice rose. ‘It’s wrong! ’ ‘Um . ’ ‘Our rights as people. Our rights as normal exhausted human beings who’ve just been on some stupid cross-country forced march.

They had their backs turned and were bent over a large archaeological site map. The men seemed oblivious to the girls in the corner.
