Tricia Sullivan returns to the genre with a page-turning, surreal high-concept science fiction that will define the conversation within the genre for years to come.

Pearl is an angel.

She works for the Resistance - an organization dedicated to improving the world by tiny, incremental acts of kindness. But Pearl also has wings. They blossom at moments of stress. And she is strong; an extraordinary, terrifying strength capable of breaking the fabric of reality. The Resistance can't account for that, nor for Pearl's mysterious origins. All anyone knows is that she appeared in a New York junkyard in the early 21st century.

Truth is, Pearl doesn't really know what she is, let alone who she is.

Now she is on a pell-mell chase across the world. In pursuit of a killer wearing another man's body. The killer carries a briefcase that is a ragged hole in the Universe. A global conspiracy revolves around it. The nature of reality is determined by it. Pearl's got to get the briefcase back - no matter how shocking its contents may turn out to be.

Praise for this book

"Tricia Sullivan is one of our most daringly imaginative novelists, and she writes like an angel on crack. Occupy Me's a high-wire act that fizzes with intelligence, metaphysics and humanity - and takes Sullivan's unique brand of science fiction to a thrilling new level." - Liz Jensen
