Now, she and another student are denied entry on Faction 73’s transport van and sentenced to something far worse:
DC Prison.
A walled city filled with violent criminals and unstable creepers.
But the moment Ivy steps inside the prison walls, everything changes.
Because Shane is there.
The young man who disappeared weeks earlier. The one person she never expected to see again. The one responsible for turning her world upside down.
Trapped inside DC Prison, Ivy is forced to rely on people she isn’t sure she can trust while searching for a way beyond the walls.
But escaping won't be easy. Every prisoner carries a tracker with a rumored kill switch. And anyone who tries to escape won’t survive long enough to make it beyond the gates.
