Noughts & Crosses
Noughts & Crosses · Book 1Description
In a society starkly divided by race, where the dark-skinned ruling class, the Crosses, oppress the 'colourless' Noughts, two young people find their lives irrevocably intertwined. Sephy, a privileged Cross, and Callum, a defiant Nought, have been friends since childhood, a bond that defies the deep-seated prejudice of their world. As their forbidden connection blossoms into a dangerous romance, they become symbols of hope and defiance against a backdrop of escalating racial tension and violence. Their love story challenges the very foundations of their society, forcing them to confront the brutal realities of prejudice and the perilous path they must forge together.
