Critical Reviews
★ "The mystery at the core of the narrative is shrouded in layers of uncertainty, lies, and outright schemes that run a clear thread of tension from the first page to the last. An eerie piece of science fiction with an unsettling, yet hopeful, ending." --Booklist, starred review "Traumatized teens navigate a labyrinth of betrayal, conspiracies, paranoia, and violence in this brutal psychological thriller....that balances suffering with hope." --Publishers Weekly "A smart, unpredictable, and emotionally rich roller-coaster ride." --Kirkus Reviews "[A] fast-paced, cinematic plot, providing readers with an entry point for considering the importance of mental health, recognizing trauma in their own lives, and seeking sources of support." --The Horn Book
