We know what we are by Dawn Reeves

When a woman takes on the vested interests in politics and football, a city is forced to take sides. We Know What We Are is a gritty contemporary political thriller, with a strong female protagonist who battles corruption, power and prejudice in a quest for a fairer society. It's set in a Midlands city.

A girl searches for her missing brother, a council leader fights to hold on to her principles and a chief executive battles to hold back the tide of cuts. Over them all looms a threatened football club and the sinister shadow of its chairman. As identities shift and allegiances are tested, how much will each of them risk to save the city, the club - and themselves?

The novel explores how our sense of ourselves affects our ability to make change, to determine the future for ourselves.

Reeves, Dawn: - Dawn lives in London and loves the Midlands. She makes change happen. She's motivated by social justice, and is fascinated by power and all the weird and wonderful things that happen under the surface. As well as being a writer, Dawn is a facilitator and curator of three commissioned books of flash fiction and first-person narratives - Change the Ending, Making our Mark and Walk Tall - Being a 21st Century Public Servant - creative collaborations that bring stories that matter alive for organisations and individuals. She has written for the Guardian and was the writer-in-residence at the Chartered Institute of Public Finance (CIPFA). Hard Change, her first novel, was published in 2013.
