Like all citizens since the Ruining, Carrington Hale knows the importance of this day. But she never expected the moment she\u2019s spent a lifetime preparing for\u2014her Choosing Ceremony\u2014to end in disaster. Ripped from her family, she\u2019ll spend her days serving as a Lint, the lowest level of society. She knows it\u2019s her duty to follow the true way of the Authority.
\nAs Carrington begins this nightmare, rumors of rebellion rattle her beliefs. Though the whispers contradict everything she\u2019s been told, they resonate deep within.
\nThen Carrington is offered an unprecedented chance at the life she\u2019s always dreamed of. It\u2019s an opportunity to be chosen at last, but she can\u2019t shake the feeling that it may be an illusion. Does the Authority truly know what\u2019s best for society? And how can it let a killer run free while Lints are dying? Carrington must uncover the truth before it destroys her.<\/p>\n
