An
action-packed, blood-soaked, futuristic debut thriller set in a world
where the murder rate is higher than the birthrate. For fans of Moira
Young’s Dust Lands series, La Femme Nikita, and the movie Hanna.
Meadow Woodson, a fifteen-year-old girl who has been trained by her father to
fight, to kill, and to survive in any situation, lives with her family
on a houseboat in Florida. The state is controlled by The Murder
Complex, an organization that tracks the population with precision.
The plot starts to thicken when Meadow meets Zephyr James, who is — although
he doesn’t know it — one of the MC’s programmed assassins. Is their
meeting a coincidence? Destiny? Or part of a terrifying strategy? And
will Zephyr keep Meadow from discovering the haunting truth about her
family?
Action-packed, blood-soaked, and chilling, this is a dark and compelling debut novel by Lindsay Cummings.
