Living the ideal life is a human right, unless you’re unregistered.
Under the control of the all-powerful Metrics Worldwide Government, every citizen’s life is assigned—job, school, spouse, and even children. Families are designed to raise one perfect child, and the concept of happiness is guaranteed by the government's precise control.
But there’s a dark secret lurking beneath the surface: the unregistered. These are the second children, forgotten and cast aside by the system. For 20-year-old Bristol, life as an unregistered is all he knows, but he can’t shake the feeling that something is terribly wrong. Discontented and restless, he channels his rebellion through clandestine, controversial murals that speak of freedom and truth, hidden in the shadows of the city.
When Metrics cracks down, they announce the relocation of all unregistered citizens to desolate desert states. But Bristol and his friends soon discover the terrifying truth behind this plan. With their lives at stake, they must flee and fight to survive in an unknown world—one that holds secrets about the society they’ve never been told.
In a world where freedom is forbidden and escape seems impossible, will Bristol defy the government’s control? Or will he be swallowed by the lies of his motherland?
Dive into this heart-pounding dystopian thriller of survival, rebellion, and a race to uncover the truth.
