In a world where a mysterious disease has wiped out most children, the survivors develop terrifying abilities—and are seen as threats. Ruby is only ten years old when she wakes up with a power so dangerous that her parents turn her in. She’s sent to Thurmond, a harsh government “rehabilitation” camp where kids like her are locked away.

Now sixteen, Ruby escapes and joins a group of runaway teens searching for East River, the last safe place for kids like them. But danger follows at every turn. As she grows close to Liam, their fearless leader, Ruby struggles with a dark secret—one that could hurt those she cares about the most.

With government forces hunting them and a rebellion brewing, Ruby must make an impossible choice: embrace the dangerous power within her or risk losing everything.
