Description
Fiona wakes to find her world has changed. Her house is abandoned and barren, and she's left with a mysterious tattoo on her wrist that she can't explain. As she navigates this new, post-apocalyptic landscape, she discovers the government's attempt to cure a deadly pandemic has made things worse - people are now ferocious beasts branded as a warning to those who haven't been vaccinated. The world is divided into two groups: those protected inside a fortress-like wall and those like Fiona, branded and on the wrong side. With no clear way back in, Fiona must navigate this treacherous new world alone. But what does it mean to be human when the very thing that makes us alive can also make us deadly? Bethany Wiggins's Stung is a gripping tale of survival and self-discovery set against a backdrop of a world gone mad.
