Set in a futuristic, war-torn North America, it tells the tale of an outlaw, teenage boy and the girl sent by the government to find him. Their meeting changes not only how they see each other but also the future of their entire world.
The book lives up to its name with only a few exceptions. The story is engaging and full of suspense, but at times can be a bit slow and even predictable. Despite the drawbacks, this book is still well-worth reading.
