Since sheÕd been on the outside, sheÕd survived an Aether storm, sheÕd had a knife held to her throat, and sheÕd seen men murdered. This was worse.

Exiled from her home, the enclosed city of Reverie, Aria knows her chances of surviving in the outer wastelandÑknown as The Death ShopÑare slim. If the cannibals donÕt get her, the violent, electrified energy storms will. SheÕs been taught that the very air she breathes can kill her. Then Aria meets an Outsider named Perry. HeÕs wildÑa savageÑand her only hope of staying alive.

A hunter for his tribe in a merciless landscape, Perry views Aria as sheltered and fragileÑeverything he would expect from a Dweller. But he needs AriaÕs help too; she alone holds the key to his redemption. Opposites in nearly every way, Aria and Perry must accept each other to survive. Their unlikely alliance forges a bond that will determine the fate of all who live under the never sky.

In her enthralling debut, Veronica Rossi sends readers on an unforgettable adventure set in a world brimming with harshness and beauty.
