Deception Simon & Schuster (393910050)

Emma and Miles are out of options. Their son needs life-saving transplant surgery, but in a world of privatised healthcare and impossible costs, they can’t afford it. Then comes the offer: a shadowy syndicate known only as The Levels promises them the exact amount of money they need. All they must do is complete a series of tasks. The catch? Each task is a crime. With every level the stakes rise, the payout grows and the line between right and wrong blurs. But Emma and Miles aren’t the only ones playing this deadly game. As the competition intensifies and they struggle under the weight of their choices, they’re faced with the ultimate question: How far would you go to save the one you love?
