More about this book

Story

Cassia and Ky are separated after the Society changes their lives, and each tries to reach the other while navigating the system that controls them. Cassia leaves the Society behind and heads into the outer provinces, where she follows clues, new companions, and rumors of resistance.

Ky’s chapters reveal his own escape and his history, with flashbacks that fill in his past and his growing mistrust of both the Society and the rebellion. The story alternates between their perspectives as they move through harsh terrain, hidden routes, and shifting alliances.

As Cassia and Ky near each other, the larger conflict becomes clearer: the Society is unstable, the Rising is moving, and truth is hard to separate from deception. The book follows their search, their internal choices, and the possibility that finding each other may not solve everything.
