A life for a life. No one need die until someone new is born. Then you've no choice.

This novella will take the reader to a dystopian future of a world of adults where birthmothers are a privileged class and every child is a celebrity. Death has been conquered, but overcrowding has led to government enforced zero population growth.

When Janice becomes pregnant without government authorization, she must find a life donor or forfeit her own. For every child born, someone must die. The math is simple, but the politics behind it are anything but. Janice soon finds herself diving into a deep conspiracy.

Here's yet another take on what the future may hold.
