Description
In a dystopian future where genetic engineering has eliminated disease but unleashed a devastating virus that claims all women by age twenty and all men by twenty-five, seventeen-year-old Rhine refuses to accept her predetermined fate. Forced into marriage as a brood mare to ensure the survival of the human race, she makes a desperate escape to search for her twin brother and uncover the truth about the virus that is slowly killing her generation. As Rhine navigates a dangerous world of secrets, lies, and impossible choices, she discovers that the cure to humanity's greatest threat may lie in the most unexpected places. DeStefano crafts a haunting exploration of love, freedom, and what it means to fight for a future when time itself is the enemy. This gripping dystopian novel challenges readers to consider the price of scientific progress and the resilience of the human spirit in the face of extinction.
