Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Paperback. In the Shadow District, time is not measured in hours. It is measured in debt.Elena has lived for twenty years under the weight of a single signature. When a rare illness threatened her life, she entered into a contract with the Chronos Exchange, mortgaging twenty years of her unborn son's natural lifespan to pay for treatment. It was supposed to be temporary. A bridge. A sacrifice she could repay.But markets fluctuate. Interest compounds. And the powerful never lose.Now Leo has turned twenty-five, and the contract has matured. Elena is fifty thousand dollars short of buying back the years she sold. In seven days, the Exchange will collect its collateral-twenty Vitality Years extracted from her son, leaving him a hollow shell.Desperate, Elena confronts Silas Vane, a high-ranking broker in the Exchange. Instead of mercy, he offers her a task: recover a stolen Time-Core from the lawless industrial wasteland known as The Hive. Complete the mission, and Leo's debt will be erased.But the stolen Core isn't a device. It is a "Natural"-a rare young woman born with extraordinary life reserves, harvested as a living battery for the elite.As Elena descends into the Shadows, she is forced to confront the true machinery of her world: a system where the wealthy buy longevity and the poor become fuel. With time slipping away, she must choose between saving her son, saving a stranger, or dismantling the system that profits from both.The Interest on Life is a tense, emotionally driven dystopian novella about motherhood, debt, sacrifice, and the cost of survival in a society where contracts matter more than conscience.For readers who enjoy morally complex dystopia with a strong emotional core and high-stakes tension. In a city where time is currency, a mother has seven days to buy back the years she sold. This item is printed on demand.
