In a near future world, after the last great war, most of mankind lives in a handful of city states. There, for the privileged elite, life should be perfect. But for young Shion, the only thing perfect has been the nightmare his life has become since… letting a strange boy called Rat spend the night in his apartment. Banished to the outskirts of the city and stripped of all privileges for helping the mysterious stranger who has since disappeared, Shion now finds himself in even worse danger as his inquiry into a new series of mysterious deaths results in his being arrested on suspicion of murder! But even as Shion is being sent to the city's Correctional Institute, the long-missing Rat reappears to rescue him!
I'd recommend it for Shion and Nezumi and for a short dystopia that dismantles the perfect city from its margins.
It's a good fit if you're looking for science fiction, romance and social criticism.
What sets it apart from other utopian cities is the price Shion pays for helping a fugitive: he loses his privileges and discovers that cleaning No. 6 depends on hiding people outside.
