"Intriguing."--Entertainment Weekly
"Steered by characters who break the rules, form new alliances, and commit to surprising paths."--Shelf Awareness
In search of a future that may not exist and faced with the decision of who to share it with, Cassia journeys to the Outer Provinces in pursuit of Ky--taken by the Society to his certain death--only to find that he has escaped, leaving a series of clues in his wake.
Cassia's quest leads her to question much of what she holds dear, even as she finds glimmers of a different life across the border. But as Cassia becomes resolved about her future with Ky, an invitation for rebellion, an unexpected betrayal, and a surprise visit from Xander--who may hold the key to the uprising and to Cassia's heart--changes the game once again.
Nothing is as expected on the edge of Society, where crosses and double crosses make the path more twisted than ever.
