The secret is locked in her mind?and they?ll do anything to get it. Gererations ago, humanity was devastated by a virus that wiped billions from the planet. If not for AmeriGlobe?s rigid control over society?s remnants, and VaxWell?s immunity-boosting biomods, humans would?ve gone the way of the dinosaurs. But a sinister purpose underlies the need for adherence to the strict rules?and it has nothing to do with the ZERO Virus. Lora Flannigan has sought to conform to the rules throughout her eighteen years, but now she stands on the brink of a prestigious pairing with a high-caste young man. Accepting the match will change her lower-class circumstances and also help her hard-working father, who?s sacrificed so much for her since her mother?s suicide. But Lora never counted on the sparks that ignite when she meets her intended?s striking brother?the fact that he has secrets which are directly entangled with his brother and even her own life only makes him all the more intriguing. But before she?s managed to make sense of her feelings, he?s embroiled her in the rebellion underworld. It turns out that Lora?s perfect memory is exactly what the rebels need in order to infiltrate VaxWell and discover their sinister purposes, and the rebellion itself may also be the key to the secrets mounting in Lora?s own life. As Lora?s involvement in the rebellion deepens, more and more shocking discoveries emerge to challenge everything Lora believes. And when still darker truths come to light, Lora realizes the purpose behind not only her advantageous pairing? but her very existence.

Marked at a young age as an individual with violent tendencies, she was taken from her family and groomed to be a Datapoint-a biotech-enabled analyst who carries out the Culling. She is designed to identify and destroy any potential humans that threaten the colonies: those marked as lawbreakers, unproductive or sick. But when she's kidnapped by rogue colonists known as the Ferrymen, everything Glade thinks she knows about the colonies, and The Authority that runs them, collapses into doubt.Pulled between two opposing sides, and with her family's lives hanging in the balance, Glade is unsure of who to trust-and time is running out.

The Culling

The Carrier

Being human means more than just surviving.In Lib's world, it's dangerous to deviate from the Norm. In fact, for someone who doesn't live up to the AI's standards, it's practically a death sentence.

Lib is a Glitch, an imperfect human component of the utopian Norm. Now, she'll have to team up with her fellow Glitches Skye and Raj and the mysterious Rogue Wolf Tracker and his clan to survive.

Now, Lib will have to decide which path to choose-whether to go with handsome loner Raj or stay with Wolf and his tight-knit group. Her heart is drawn to both, but she's carrying a deadly secret that could jeopardize them all. Will she be able to save her newfound family and stop the AI before it's too late?

The Norm

The Labs

The Elite

Torn in two directions, Glade must make one fateful choice—for herself, and the future of humanity. Glade Io is a rebel. Having fled with her younger sisters to live among the Ferrymen, she knows there is no going back now. She is committed to the cause of overthrowing the brutal Authority, and she trains her new comrades in the art of combating Datapoints like herself—those tasked with the Ferrymen’s destruction. Meanwhile Ferryman leader Kupier longs to travel the stars with Glade, free from constant war, but to do that he believes they must strike The Authority at its heart: the ancestral homeworld of Earth. Glade is hesitant; she hopes taking out the Datapoints living on the Station will be enough. But when the time comes, Glade faces the specter of killing her former friends in cold blood and her former mentor, Dahn Enceladus, tells her that The Authority has eyes and ears within the rebel stronghold. Now Glade faces a dilemma: sabotage The Authority from within, or return to fight alongside the Ferrymen, possibly putting her sisters’ lives in danger.

The Ferrymen

The Decemites

When everything she’s ever known is a lie, one young woman must make a choice that could change the course of history. Glade Io is torn between two worlds. She’s a trained killing machine—selected by the ruthless Authority to be a Datapoint, a tech-enabled agent of the state who eliminates threats to the human colonies throughout the solar system in the Culling. But her time among rogue colonists called the Ferrymen has convinced her that The Authority has far more sinister plans in store, and all the justifications they fed to her are lies. Vowing to help the rebels fight The Authority from the inside, Glade must sabotage a captured Ferryman ship that The Authority is planning to use to attack the Ferrymen stronghold. Though Glade is drawn to the brave leader of the Ferrymen, Kupier, she has older loyalties as well. Her friend and mentor Dahn Enceladus is charismatic and ambitious, but although Glade cares for him, she can no longer trust him. Her younger sisters are also in danger of facing Datapoint testing, and now she’s being forced into an upgrade she cannot refuse. But help is about to arrive in an unlikely form: a ghost from her distant past.
