Description

A Better World by Sarah Langan is a satirical thriller about a family's journey into an exclusive enclave for the wealthy. Plymouth Valley, a walled-off company town, promises clean air and full pantries in exchange for a hefty price tag. The Farmer-Bowens are lured to this bucolic paradise with the promise of a better life, but they soon discover that fitting in takes work. The locals are distrustful of outsiders, and the residents adhere to a mysterious set of customs called Hollow. As Linda brokers acceptance by volunteering her medical skills, she begins to uncover disturbing secrets about the town. As the Plymouth Valley Winter Festival approaches, Linda's warnings to stop asking questions fall on deaf ears. With each new discovery, she becomes increasingly frightened, and the lines between safety and danger begin to blur.
