Overview
Cal Conway thinks it's his mind that's breaking when cracks start appearing that no one else can see. He discovers that, far from leading an ordinary life in a northern town in 2010 as he thought, he has spent his whole life so far in a research facility, suspended in a deliberately induced coma state. It is 2022 and a repressive regime is in force, who plan to brainwash the populace en masse. Cal is sprung from the facility by a resistance organisation who want his help. But Cal has enough of being controlled. He meets Kyla, a girl who lives on the streets, and for the first time feels his new life may be worth living. But to beat the regime, he will have to risk everything and go back to where he started... Cracks is about finding and keeping your sense of self when everything around you is falling apart.
