Meet Kate Nicholson, a new indie author taking the world of self-publishing by storm with her debut novel Nonrandom Passenger.
Hailing from a harsh reality, Susan Barnes, a 19-year-old redhead girl adorned with freckles, spends her days in a timeless train whose endless motion serves as its sole purpose. She coexists with a conservative society of passengers who, generations ago, submitted to the local laws. With meager monthly provisions of clothing and food that are barely fit for consumption, they've accepted a lifetime of stringing multicolored beads onto a fishing line as their duty. However, on the eve of her 20th birthday, when Susan is set to attain majority age, she is struck by an unfamiliar and dangerous emotion that compels her to commit the gravest of crimes - to halt the train.
So, in the solitude of a squalid vestibule of the train car, feeling each beat of her fervent heart, Susan finally seizes the emergency lever. In that moment, she will be transported into a new realm of human awareness, embarking on a journey of self-discovery and unforeseeable exploits.
Nonrandom Passenger is a symbolic coming-of-age work of literary fiction, infused with strong elements of dystopia and fantasy. This compelling novel is an exhilarating adventure that explores the themes of oppressive tyranny and varied forms of love, including those that are abusive and toxic. As the plot unfolds, readers are drawn into a world that challenges the fundamental structures of self-identity and explores the intricacies of human emotions.
