Summary: On the ruined planet Earth, where 50 billion people are confined to megacities and resources are scarce, Deedra has been handed a bleak and mundane existence by the Magistrate she works so hard for. But one day she comes across a beautiful boy named Rose struggling to cross the river--a boy with a secretive past and special abilities, who is somehow able to find comfort and life from their dying planet. But just as the two form a bond, it is quickly torn apart after the Magistrate's son is murdered and Rose becomes the prime suspect. Little do Deedra and Rose know how much their relationship will affect the fate of everyone who lives on the planet.
Review: This thing was so cool. It is another dystopian story but the prologue is something that should not be skipped. It seems really weird but it makes sense later on trust me. We have two main charters, Deedra and Rose. Deedra is an orphan is showed us what is like to be human. She just wants to be free and she is selfless. She helps Rose who looks like he could not make it across the river. Rose is not quite human. This book shows what life could be like if we continue on the path we are on with destroying the earth. And it brings up a two other big issues, rape and police brutality. Now the rape does not happen but people in power do not believe Deedra when she says that a son of a powerful guy had attacked and had tried to rape her. The police brutality comes in later on but I will not give that away. This book is full of darkness and horror with one bright spot. Enjoy once it comes out. This was a really good read.
