Living in London can drain your bank account-and your spirit. Rent, food, and travel can stretch even a decent salary to breaking point.
For Marc, something had to change. Fast.
Low on options-and sharing a flat with a roommate whose cat-litter habits were a genuine health hazard-Marc stumbles upon an unconventional way to live rent-free and save hundreds of pounds a month.
But freedom doesn't come easily.
First, there's the interrogator who holds all the cards.
Then, there's the woman who seems determined to take his scalp.
And behind it all, the constant fear of being found out and sent back to square one.
Armed with nothing but grit, humour, and stubborn determination, Marc enters a hidden world that offers more than cheap living. It offers purpose, resilience, and a second chance.
Funny, honest, and deeply human, Rent Free in the City is a story about survival, reinvention, and discovering that sometimes the greatest savings aren't financial-they're personal.
Perfect for readers who enjoy real-life, page turner stories of struggle, laughter, and unexpected transformation.
