From the New York Times bestselling author of The Glass Sentence comes a haunting story of one determined girl who will use her razor-sharp wits and martial arts skills to fight killers, predators, and the world’s biggest company to rescue her brother.

“Readers, especially lovers of dystopian fiction, will enjoy this book and may just come away wondering, ‘what if . . . ?’”—School Library Connection
In a world where only the rich can afford emotions, what is the cost of love?

Natalia Peña has already waned. So why does she love her little brother with such ferocity that, when he’s kidnapped by a monolithic corporation, she’ll do anything to get him back?
