Bookroo's summary
In a surveillance-dominated future England, Jacob flees the Academy orphanage, determined to find his dog, Jet, and honor his parents' last wish. With a tracking chip embedded at birth, evading the Coalition seems impossible. His only allies are the Outwalkers, a group of children living off the grid. Their strict rules are the key to survival, but can Jacob trust them to help him escape? As they navigate a world where every move is monitored, the stakes are life and death. Will Jacob find freedom, or will the Coalition catch up to him first?

The Coalition can track anyone, anywhere, from a chip implanted at birth. Now Jacob must fulfill his promise to his parents, find his dog, Jet, and navigate his way out of England. Their only hope is a band of children who have found a way to survive off the grid: The Outwalkers. Their rules are strict, but necessary if they’re going to get out alive…
