KIRKUS REVIEW
A teenager attempts to find a cure for a deadly, civilization-threatening virus in debut author Baker's dystopian YA series starter.
Overall, Baker's prose is sharp and vivid, and she manages to immediately plunge her readers into the world of the novel. The story is swiftly paced and features some surprising twists and intriguing characters. The plot doesn't challenge the strict boundaries of the dystopian genre, but its combination of sci-fi, mystery, and teen romance still makes for a compelling adventure.
A promising YA debut about a girl's search for a future in the wreckage of the past.
