THE STUNNING NEW NOVEL FROM MULTIPLE AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR, KEVIN BROOKS

The doctors break the devastating news that she has been struck down by a rare genetic condition that makes her skin has become transparent, revealing everything inside of her – and Kenzie feels repellent to look at.
But when a medical photo of her is leaked and goes viral, the press attention is massive. How can Kenzie live like this, when she doesn't want to be seen at all? Can a boy who can't even see her, be the only one to help her to find the answers… ?

Reviews
On Born Scared: ‘Hugely readable . . . confoundedly gripping'', Independent on Sunday
'On Being: A subtle, spooky, headlong dash through the dark edges of romantic science fiction, a genre Kevin Brooks – with his usual delight in flouting convention – appears to have invented', Meg Rosoff, award-winning author of How I Live Now
