Description
Callie Rose is a girl with a complicated past. Her mother is a member of the ruling elite, known as the Crosses, while her father was a Nought, a member of the lower class. This mixed heritage has made her an outsider in a world where bitter prejudice divides the two groups. As she navigates her dual identity, Callie meets Jude McGregor, who teaches her about her family history and helps her understand where her loyalties truly lie. But Callie soon finds herself caught in a trap with deadly consequences. This book is a powerful exploration of prejudice, identity, and the complexities of growing up in a divided world.
