Description
In a world where toll booths are a literal gateway to the afterlife, Citra and Rowan are thrust into a deadly game of life and death. As scythes, they are tasked with the grim duty of ending lives to control the population, but the lines between good and evil blur when they are forced to glean each other. This gripping novel explores profound questions about morality, the value of life, and the corrupting nature of power, all within a society that has conquered death but created new forms of suffering. Shusterman masterfully crafts a thought-provoking narrative that challenges readers to consider the true cost of immortality.
