Review
Knox is a rich boy, he's never had to work for anything in his life and has the life of Riley.
His father is a bigwig in this dystopian world and Knox doesn't feel that he gets enough attention from him since his mother died, he subsequently does anything he can just to piss him off.
Sid is a proxy, Knox's proxy.
He is a poor sewer rat living in poverty, he has so much debt that he can never pay off so becoming a proxy is a norm around his parts.
This is how it works.
The person in debt (Sid) sells his debt to whoever, in this case Knox's father, therefore making Sid a proxy for Knox!
Keeping up ???
It gets easier honest.
So a proxy's role is to take punishment for his owner. So if Knox breaks his grandma's vase then Sid will get dragged out of bed, tied up and given a certain amount of electric shocks dependant on the crime.
Knox's role is to sit and watch the punishment and feel bad about it!
What would happen to Sid for example if Knox stole his father's car?
What would happen to Sid if he had a girl in the car with him and they crashed?
What would happen if she died?
All this and more dear readers is in this cool little book. Give it a go..........For Sids sake !!!
