After a forced corrective implant unlocks mind-bending visions of every possible future, sixteen-year-old Jacob Zero must race across a deadly dystopian London to uncover a devastating truth, before he’s hunted down by his own mother, and before the implant burns him alive, just like it did his dad.
COMING MARCH 2026
ALEX RIDER MEETS THE TERMINATOR
Time will be rewritten
What's the book about?
Set in a deadly near-future dystopian London, Remember the Future launches the Mind Bound series – a high-concept YA sci-fi thriller following sixteen-year-old Jacob Zero, pitched as the ultimate gaslighting of one boy’s destiny.
It’s a fight for the right to be 'wrong' in a world that will kill to enforce what it is to be 'right.' Exploring a generation’s anxiety and fears over fate, control, and free will, Remember the Future asks what destiny means when it's already decided for you.
Alex Rider meets the Terminator -- with emotional heart.
If books could play like movies, this would be the one: fast-paced, emotional, and full of explosive twists that will keep you questioning everything until the very end.

About the author
For decades, my day job has been all about visual storytelling. Working as a graphic designer, I was an early adopter of Adobe Photoshop (way back in the nineties!), building worlds pixel by pixel. During my years working for IPC Media, right on London's Southbank, I designed and wrote countless Photoshop tutorials for digital photography magazines.
I also co-authored three traditionally published books on digital photography and Photoshop image editing.

My passion for all things science fiction and fantasy meant it was only a matter of time before my own creative writing teleported into the world of fiction.
Remember the Future is my debut fiction novel and has been a two-year labour of love creating a familiar yet ominous near-future dystopian London caught in a tech-fueled culture war... a world that feels like it's only just around the corner (or perhaps it's already here).
I'm so excited to share this story with you.
