My Life In Your Hands (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780244181338)

The Hopes are a typical English family living in 1989's Britain. It's a time when the country is going through immense change, and that's even before the brand new state-of-the-art Singlemart superstore opens up in their little midlands town, generating much excitement among the residents. The catch, however, is that everyone must use a swipe card which records every item they purchase, and the items have been given negative or positive values, depending on how 'healthy' that item is deemed to be. The overall individual points result in either a bright future... or none at all. Unfortunately, the new Singlemarts are just the tip of the iceberg; with the government looking to control every aspect of their citizens' lives, there are dark times ahead. With most of her family obeying the rules, will Diane Hope comply like she's been doing her whole life, or will she stand up and fight for once?
