In her captivating debut into the young adult fiction genre, award-winning author Victoria Williamson unveils a thrilling dystopian survival story. Set in the year 2123, the narrative revolves around 16-year-old Adina, who, through a tragic accident, inadvertently causes the loss of 14,756 lives. Raised in the idyllic eco-bubble of Eden Five, Adina had always believed that the Amonston Corporations massive greenhouse would shield her from harm forever. However, her careless mistake leads to an explosion that obliterates Eden Five, leaving her and a small group of survivors stranded in the barren wastelands beyond the ruined Dome. With their biofilters rapidly depleting and their DNA endangered by the toxic air, they must embark on a perilous journey to reach the Sanctuary before it's too late. What they discover along the way shocks them to their core: the outside world is not as desolate as they had been led to believe. As time ticks away, Adina grapples with her overwhelming guilt and must summon the courage to ensure the safety of everyone. Will she emerge alive, or will the Nomalies claim her as their prey?
