Description
In a world where science has become a curse, humanity faces extinction as men die at twenty-five and women at twenty. To ensure survival, young girls are taken from their homes and forced into marriage, becoming pawns in a desperate attempt to repopulate the ravaged earth. This dystopian society grapples with the ethics of survival and the loss of innocence as one young woman finds herself thrust into this grim reality. She must navigate a dangerous new life, questioning the choices made for the sake of humanity and searching for hope in a world determined to break her.
