‘Gripping from start to finish, the tension builds beautifully with each turn of the page.’ -- Tall Tales & Short Stories. 

“A striking, timely tale, beautifully written and precisely observed. Neva is a stunning protagonist, a determined, idealistic, flawed young woman who brings light into the dark places of her world.” – Karen Healey, author of GUARDIAN OF THE DEAD and THE SHATTERING

"With vivid imagery and realistically portrayed teen angst and emotions, Grant creates a believable, if horrifying, world peopled with interesting and well developed characters...There are plenty of twists and turns. The conclusion is satisfying but leaves things open for a sequel, which should seriously be considered. Grant is a debut author to watch." -- Library Media Connection.

“I absolutely loved this book. I could not put it down for anything, and when I was not reading it, I was thinking about it. Grant creates a very believable world, and such strong characters.” – Books Complete Me

“Don't expect to get anything done while reading it because it's INTENSE!  And fabulous. It's exactly the way any dystopian should be.” – Candace’s Book Blog 

"Grant gives readers little gifts with each of her plot twists, many of which are not visible until they hit you in the face. And while I can’t wait to read more by this author, it’s nice to have a story contained in one book. This is one book readers will want to revisit more than once." -- Cracking the Cover
