Beauty Sleep – Kathryn Evans

Click here for the rest of the article and photographs. I retched. There were photographs. I couldn’t read it. I took deep breaths, trying to calm down. Benjie didn’t appear, even though my heart was running on overdrive, so when I could speak without being sick, I took a risk. “Notitia, find Stacey Flowers.” There was still no Benjie as the list was replaced.

Top of the page was an invite to find my real friends in virtual space. So not funny. I needed to know who my real friends were to do that. I scrolled down until I found a report about Stacey appearing in court. It was roughly the same date I’d seen her on telly when I was watching films with Miss Lilly. I skimmed through it. Stacey Flowers broke the permanent injunction against her designed to prevent all contact with Lilly Crisp of Miss Lilly Enterprises. The judge decided that, while this was a serious breach, there was no intended malice in 58-year-old Flowers’ attempts to deliver several letters by drone to Miss Crisp’s famous clinic, Blackhurst.

Flowers has been given a community order and warned that if she breaks the injunction again, the court will have no choice but to return her to prison. Miss Lilly declined to comment but it’s understood that she is unhappy with the judgement and is considering civil action.

There was a picture of the woman I’d seen on the news. She was in a horrible grey suit and walking away from a court building. Her face was hidden by a slate but it had to be Stacey. I stared at it, wondering what she’d written in those letters. Maybe they’d been meant for me. It was possible, when she knew I’d been revived. Maybe she had tried to say sorry. “Oh God, Stacey. What a mess.” My brain felt like it was being carved in two with a blunt bread knife.

If she’d really done those things, how could I ever forgive her?

Who am I? What am I? When am I? Laura can’t remember who she is. But the rest of the world knows. Because Laura is famous – a dying girl who was frozen until she could be cured. A real-life Sleeping Beauty. But what happens when you wake up one day and the world has moved on forty years?

Could you build a new life – while solving the mystery of what happened to the old one? A darkly twisted thriller plunging a pre-tech girl into a futuristic world. 1kitap1.com/en 1kitap1.com/en Contents ABOUT THIS BOOK Dedication BEFORE chapter one: LAURA chapter two: LAURA chapter three: SHEM chapter four: LAURA chapter five: LAURA chapter six: SHEM chapter seven: LAURA chapter eight: SHEM chapter nine: LAURA chapter ten: LAURA chapter eleven: SHEM chapter twelve: LAURA chapter thirteen: SHEM chapter fourteen: LAURA chapter fifteen: LAURA chapter sixteen: SHEM chapter seventeen: LAURA chapter eighteen: LAURA chapter nineteen: LAURA chapter twenty: LAURA chapter twenty-one: SHEM chapter twenty-two: LAURA chapter twenty-three: SHEM chapter twenty-four: LAURA chapter twenty-five: SHEM chapter twenty-six: LAURA chapter twenty-seven: SHEM chapter twenty-eight: LAURA chapter twenty-nine: LAURA chapter thirty: SHEM chapter thirty-one: LAURA chapter thirty-two: LAURA chapter thirty-three: SHEM chapter thirty-four: LAURA chapter thirty-five: SHEM chapter thirty-six: LAURA chapter thirty-seven: SHEM chapter thirty-eight: LAURA chapter thirty-nine: SHEM chapter forty: LAURA chapter forty-one: SHEM chapter forty-two: LAURA chapter forty-three: SHEM chapter forty-four: LAURA chapter forty-five: SHEM chapter forty-six: LAURA chapter forty-seven: LAURA chapter forty-eight: LAURA chapter forty-nine: SHEM chapter fifty: LAURA chapter fifty-one: LAURA chapter fifty-two: LAURA chapter fifty-three: SHEM chapter fifty-four: LAURA chapter fifty-five: SHEM chapter fifty-six: LAURA chapter fifty-seven: SHEM chapter fifty-eight: LAURA chapter fifty-nine: LAURA chapter sixty: LAURA chapter sixty-one: LAURA chapter sixty-two: LAURA chapter sixty-three: LAURA chapter sixty-four: LAURA chapter sixty-five: LAURA chapter sixty-six: SHEM chapter sixty-seven: LAURA chapter sixty-eight: SHEM chapter sixty-nine: LAURA chapter seventy: SHEM chapter seventy-one: LAURA chapter seventy-two: SHEM chapter seventy-three: LAURA chapter seventy-four: SHEM chapter seventy-five: LAURA chapter seventy-six: EPILOGUE ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS ABOUT THE AUTHOR Copyright Page 1kitap1.com/en For Greta Rose Davison.
