In the near future thanks to medical technology, immortality is now within humanity's grasp. Faced with declining economic productivity, falling birth rates, and a severely aging population,  healthcare resources are allocated to 'lifers', those predisposed for a life expected to be lived healthily well beyond a hundred years old. Some factors that determine lifer status are genetically incidental - but there are other, more intangible factors that are within individuals' control: the degree to which they are 'life-loving' and self-caring.

The Suicide Club hasn't always been an activist group. Initially, it was a group of disillusioned lifers, gathering to indulge in forbidden, hedonistic activities: performances of live music, traditional meals of the most artery-clogging kind, irresponsible orgies . . . You name it. Now branded terrorists, anyone found guilty of wanting the right to die as they choose will find themselves fast-tracked to the Third Wave and condemned to immortality. . 

To win a copy of this daring debut novel simply tell us in 25 words or less ‘If you could choose between death and immortality which would you choose and why?
