Citizenship was never revoked. The doors simply stopped opening.
Mara Voss has spent years reconciling other people's standing for the state. Every citizen has a file. Every file produces a rating. Every rating decides which schools, clinics, jobs, and futures remain within reach.
Mara knows how to keep the machine moving because she helped make its cruelty look like procedure. She also knows how fragile a family becomes when one name turns amber.
Then an unsequenced woman appears in the placement queue on Mara's own desk: Vera, the undocumented grandmother her family was supposed to have erased.
Turning Vera in could protect Mara's career and preserve her sixteen-year-old daughter's future. Refusing could strip away the last permissions holding their lives together. But every clean signature leaves a stain, and every record asks the same question: Who must disappear so the rest of us can belong?
WILD TYPE is a gripping literary dystopian novel about genetic surveillance, administrative power, family inheritance, and the terrible bargains ordinary people make inside an orderly system.
For readers drawn to intimate speculative fiction, morally complicated women, and near-future worlds frightening precisely because they work.
When the system asks what a human life is worth, Mara must decide whether survival is still survival if it requires erasing the people who made her.
