Book Synopsis

For the first printing only! This book features sprayed edges while the special edition supply lasts.

Rhine and Gabriel navigate the treacherous outside world in this second book in the riveting, New York Times bestselling dystopian young adult trilogy reminiscent of The Handmaid's Tale. This special 15th anniversary edition features a brand-new look!

Rhine and Gabriel may have escaped the mansion, but they're far from safe--outside, they find a world even more disquieting than the one they left. Determined to get to Manhattan and find Rhine's twin brother Rowan, the two press forward amidst threats of being captured again...or worse.

The road they are one is long and treacherous, and in a world where everyone dies young, time is precious. Rhine must decide if freedom is worth the price, especially now that she has more to lose than ever.
