I can t recall the name of a book , I read it when i was 11 (about 7 years ago), and all I can remeber is that it was about a boy that worked at a morgue, hiss boss gave him something to drink to not fall asleep, a drink that the boy didn t like at all, and I remember that the city he lived in was divided between rich and poor, in his part (the poor part of the town) they didn t have electricity on the streets and that s about it, I know it s not much to go on, it all seems so faded away i can t remember anything else.

Please provide plot details (no spoilers) and the genre of the book you're looking for in the Topic Header - not something vague like "Help! can't remember this book". Someone is more likely to recognize your book.

Dani, I added genre and plot details to the topic header. This will help searchers and moderators. Feel free to update it by clicking the small "edit" link after the header. This only works on the full Desktop website - not the Mobile website or app.

How old is the boy? Is this book for teens or adults?

Is the setting realistic (fiction) or a dystopian world (sci fi)?
