Who will survive the Wasteland?
5 time Emmy Award nominated writer Susan Kim and Edgar Award winning Laurence Klavan collaborate on a thrilling adventure set in a post-apocalyptic United States.
No one dares to leave the District-the towering structure of glass and steel that is their protection against the unruly bands of Outsiders that roam Mundreel and the deadly rain that carries the disease that kills everyone over the age of nineteen. This skyscraper stands amid the urban devastation, the city rumored to have once been called "Montreal." Esther and her allies have created a haven on the rooftop, a garden that flourishes, and a home for her new baby, hidden from all but the very few who know her secret. But as Gideon's power grows and factions form, the ultimate darkness is born from greed, and Esther must find a way to save the citizens from themselves.
