Aisling Rawle is an ex-bookseller from Leitrim in the West of Ireland, where she wrote The Compound, her dark reality TV satire and debut novel. Aisling currently lives in Dublin.
You wake up in a compound in the middle of the desert, along with nine other women.
All of you are young, all beautiful, all keen to escape the grinding poverty, political unrest and environmental catastrophe of the outside world.
You realise that cameras are tracking your every move, broadcasting to millions of reality TV fans.
Soon, ten men will arrive on foot – if they all survive the journey.
What will you have to do to win?
And what happens to the losers?

Why watch TV when Aisling Rawle does it better?' TORREY PETERS 'THIS is the book to read this summer. 10 out of 10' CECELIA AHERN ------------------------------------------------------- You wake up in a compound in the middle of the desert, along with nine other women.
