Abstract

David Medway is not who he says he is. In the office he is an exemplary owner-employee, a Toy Buyer for EZe, the world's biggest online retailer, but offline he is playing a dangerous game, secretly embezzling funds from the company's accounts. However, Medway has a bigger secret, one that threatens the very core of his identity. Haunted by unsettling dreams and visions, and threatened with exposure and arrest, Medway is forced to confront his past and with it, himself. Set in a convincing near-future society ravaged by sudden climate change and controlled through draconian security measures, The Buyer examines issues of identity, fear, paranoia, and power.
