Description
In a world where wealth and power are concentrated in the hands of a few, one girl dares to challenge the system. America's future looks bleak, with poverty and inequality rampant. To address these problems, a radical solution has been implemented: the Child Redistribution Adoption System. For nineteen-year-old Robin Sylvone, this means losing her baby two years ago when she was forced to surrender her child under the scheme. Robin's life is now a struggle, working long hours in a factory to make ends meet. But she refuses to give up hope of finding her daughter again. When she stumbles upon a group of misfits who share her desire for change, Robin finds herself drawn into an underground movement of rebels fighting against the system. They steal children back from the rich and return them to their rightful owners, sparking a thrilling cat-and-mouse game with the authorities. As Robin navigates this treacherous landscape, she must confront the harsh realities of a government that will stop at nothing to maintain its power. With her life hanging in the balance, can she find her baby girl before it's too late?
