Description

In a future where families are limited to two children, Luke has lived his entire life in isolation and fear. As one of the "shadow children", he's never had a friend or experienced the world beyond his family's farm. Luke's life is about to change when he sees a girl's face in the window of a house where two other children already live. For the first time, he meets someone like himself - Jen, who's willing to risk everything to come out of the shadows. Luke must decide whether to become involved in her plan and risk everything for freedom. With a new housing development threatening his home, Luke's world is turned upside down. Will he find the courage to join Jen on her perilous journey?
