But then French wakes up in a pitch-black room, locked in and alone for the first time in years, and he knows immediately where he isâand what it will take to escape.Â
Meanwhile, out in the world, his found family searches for him and dodges new dangersâschool Recruiters, a blood cult, even the land itself. When their paths finally collide, French must decide how far he is willing to goâand how many loved ones is he willing to betrayâin order to survive. This engrossing, action-packed, deftly-drawn novel expands on the world of Cherie Dimalineâs award-winning The Marrow Thieves, and it will haunt readers long after theyâve turned the final page.
