Those Skylar trusted most have betrayed her. Any move she makes could result in the extinction of her people ... but giving in means giving up any hope of regaining their freedom.

But neither Skylar nor Win are prepared when they uncover an even deeper conspiracy of betrayals and deceit--one that could push the uncertain future they''re fighting for completely out of reach.

A ilha onde mora Kaelyn, uma garota de 16 anos, foi sitiada e ninguém pode entrar nem sair: um vírus letal e não identificado se espalha entre os habitantes. Jovens, velhos, crianças — ninguém está a salvo, e a lista de óbitos não para de aumentar. Entre os sintomas da doença misteriosa está a perda das inibições sociais. Os infectados agem sem pudor, falam o que vem à mente e não hesitam em contaminar outras pessoas. A quarentena imposta pelo governo dificulta as pesquisas que trariam a cura, suprimentos e remédios não chegam em quantidade suficiente e quem ainda não foi infectado precisa lutar por água, energia e alimento. Nem todos, porém, assistem impassíveis ao colapso da ilha. Kaelyn é uma dessas pessoas. Enquanto o vírus leva seus amigos e familiares, ela insiste em acreditar que haverá uma salvação. Afinal, o que será dela e de todos se não houver? “Esse é o tipo de livro que faz você olhar assustado quando alguém por perto dá um espirro. Um retrato intenso do horror de uma doença repentina e brutal e do dilema entre agir com humanidade e salvar a própria pele.” Booklist “Crewe escapa da armadilha de criar situações deprimentes e sem esperança, e mantém uma forte noção de realismo do começo ao fim.” Publishers Weekly “Crewe usa abordagem do ‘menos é mais’, sutilmente estreitando os muros ao redor dos personagens enquanto começam a lhes faltar suprimentos.” Kirkus Reviews

Seventeen-year-old Skylar has always been haunted by fleeting yet powerful feelings that something around her has gone wrong. Those impressions have never seemed to reflect anything real, and have only earned her stares and whispers behind her back. But after she meets a mysterious boy named Win, she learns an unsettling truth: we are not alone on Earth. In fact, visitors from beyond the stars are manipulating our planet and the essential fabric of our world; life as we know it is starting to unravel. And Skylar--and her heightened awareness--just may be the key to our salvation.

But after she meets a mysterious boy named Win, she learns an unsettling truth: we are not alone on Earth. In fact, visitors from beyond the stars are manipulating our planet and the essential fabric of our world; life as we know it is starting to unravel. And Skylar—and her heightened awareness—just may be the key to our salvation.

Skylar never imagined that she’d end up helping a boy from another planet search through Earth’s history for a way to end his people’s secret control over her world. But now that she’s been drawn into Win’s group of rebels, she can’t walk away until their mission is completed and her Earth is free. Whisked to the immense space station that Win and the rest of the Kemyates call home, Skylar escapes suspicion by passing as an Earthing “pet” of Win’s rival, a brash and cocky boy named Jule. The other rebels don’t quite treat her as an equal, but Skylar copes with her homesickness in this alien environment by throwing herself into work on the weapon they must finish assembling to save Earth. Her keen attention to detail and skill with numbers start to earn the Kemyates’ respect. Unfortunately, that doesn’t make her position any less precarious. The Enforcers are still intent on tracking down the rebels, and it becomes clear that someone within the resistance is leaking information to the enemy. With Win and Jule squabbling over her affections, and the entire rebel group growing increasingly suspicious of each other, Skylar feels her chances of saving Earth slipping away. It doesn’t help that she’s falling for Jule despite herself. Determined to see her mission through, she finds herself more and more wrapped up in the lives around her and discovers the truth is far more complicated than she could have expected. Setting Earth free may require her to betray both her heart and the family and friends she left behind.
