Manchester, 2025. Local mechanic Sol steals old vehicles to meet the demand for spares. But when Sol’s partner impulsively jacks a luxury model, Sol finds himself caught up in a nightmarish trans-dimensional human trafficking conspiracy.
Hidden in the stolen car is a voiceless, three-armed woman called Y. She’s had her memory removed and undertaken a harrowing journey into a world she only vaguely recognises. And someone waiting in the UK expects her delivery at all costs.
Now Sol and Y are on the run from both Y’s traffickers and the organisation’s faithful products. With the help of a dangerous triggerman and Sol’s ex, they must uncover the true, terrifying extent of the trafficking operation, or it’s all over.
Not that there was much hope to start with.
A novel about the horror of exploitation and the weight of love, Graft imagines a country in which too many people are only worth what’s on their price tag.

      Hill (The Folded Man) introduces a lawless Manchester, U.K., in 2025, where Roy and Sol, two hitmen and carjackers, eke out a miserable existence for themselves. After stealing a car, Sol discovers a three-armed woman, Y, in the trunk; she was a prisoner who was left behind by her traffickers. Sol resolves to help Y escape the horror that is her life. As the mystery of Y’s existence and her purpose unfolds, Hill captures the dark underbelly of Manchester in visceral prose. There is a unique horror in Y’s predicament, and Hill renders it in chilling terms. The dual points of view is a nice addition to the narrative. Several sharp jolts in the story are employed to heighten suspense, but sometimes they confuse the narrative. Hill’s world is tinged with a sense of foreboding in this refreshing take on a futuristic mystery. Agent: Sam Copeland, Rogers, Coleridge and White.
