About this product

Product Information

Hannah Payne is a RED. Her crime: MURDER. And her victim, says the state of Texas, was her unborn child. Lying on a table in a bare room, covered by only a paper gown, Hannah awakens to a nightmare. Cameras broadcast her every move to millions at home, for whom observing new Chromes - criminals whose skin has been genetically altered to match the class of their crime - is a sinister form of entertainment. Hannah refuses to reveal the identity of her father. But cast back into a world that has marked her for life, how far will she go to protect the man she loves? An enthralling and chilling novel from the author of MUDBOUND, for fans of THE HANDMAID'S TALE and THE SCARLET LETTER.

  • When She Woke

    Really imaginative dystopian thriller. So different to her excellent first novel Mudbound, When She Woke follows the life of Hannah Payne her skin pigment turned red to indicate her crime of abortion/murder. The book follows a turbulent period of her life as a Chrome and the many twists and turns she experiences. Really original and well written book.

  • Too alike

    It reminded me too much of the handmaidens tale,readable but a little slow.
