Rhine and Gabriel have finally escaped the mansion, but they’re still in danger. Outside, they find a world even more dangerous than the one they left behind. With Vaughn, Rhine’s sinister father-in-law, hot on their trail they remain determined to get to Manhattan and to find Rhine’s twin brother Rowan.
But, the road they are on is long and perilous—and in a world where young women only live to age 20 and men die at age 25, time is precious. Rhine must face the reality of what the world has become, while deciding if freedom is worth the price—or if it even existed.
In the sequel to Lauren DeStefano’s Wither, Rhine and Gabriel press forward in spending their lives together, amidst threats of being captured again . . . or worse.
