By 2047, no crime in America goes unsolved. No wrongdoing goes unseen.
When Dray Quintero learns his nineteen-year-old daughter Raven committed a heinous act, he covers it up to save her life. This pits him against the police he's respected since he was a child and places him in the crosshairs of Kieran, a ruthless federal Agent. To survive, Dray must overcome the surveillance system he helped build and the technology implanted in people's heads, for everyone has a microcomputer in their brain and computer-screen lenses in their eyes.
Forced to turn to a domestic terrorist group to protect his family--as they're the only ones willing to fight the government--Dray tries to resist joining their cause but can't avoid it, for his adversaries have a level of control he's unable to escape. That no one can. Hunted and betrayed, with time running out, Dray must choose between saving Raven and dismantling the near-perfect society he helped create.
The Price of Safety is a fast-paced, non-stop ride that has drawn comparison to Minority Report and Black Mirror. Technological advancements keep coming every day. Bland lets you peek into our potential future, for better or for worse.
Critic reviews
"The Price of Safety is an imaginative, action-driven science fiction novel set in a nightmarish yet plausible future." --Foreword Clarion Reviews

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 2,523
It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

In the heart of the South Pacific lies Point Nemo, the most desolate and remote place on Earth. At its core is a dead zone, devoid of life, where government agencies crash their obsolete satellites and space stations, confident they won't harm a soul. When the International Space Station suffers a catastrophic failure and plummets through the atmosphere, it's here that Mission Specialist Julie Rohr, an astrobiologist studying living space dust called xylem, finds herself marooned. Julie's only hope for rescue lies in the hands of her estranged father, Dr. Finn Maddern, a renowned mycologist.

Prepare to be captivated, enthralled, and challenged!
Overall, "The Price of Safety" is a thought-provoking and gripping tale that will appeal to fans of dystopian fiction and political thrillers alike. Michael Bland's expert storytelling combined with the excellent production values make this audiobook a must-listen for anyone craving a suspenseful and intellectually stimulating adventure.
One of the most compelling aspects of this story is its exploration of timely themes such as government surveillance, the erosion of civil liberties, and the ethics of self-preservation. Michael doesn't shy away from asking difficult questions or presenting morally ambiguous characters, which adds layers of depth to the story and keeps listeners engaged from start to finish.
The audiobook's production quality is top-notch. The reader's skillful delivery brings each character to life, making it easy for listeners to become emotionally invested in their journey.

The Price is Right and Safety First!
This is a fun read with a lot of twists and turns throughout the book. This is an imaginative story with a lot of heart, sci-fi, and action. I enjoyed the variety of characters as they endured, died, and changed. I thought the actor did a great job voicing the characters and energizing the story. I cannot wait to complete the trilogy.
