Yarrow rules the halls of Oaks boarding school with cruel precision. The daughter of one of Eden's most powerful women, she lives for wild parties and tormenting weaker students. Her privileged world shifts when she encounters Lark, a mysterious girl with lilac hair who captivates her completely. Rowan has spent her life as a fugitive. Born as an illegal second child in Eden's controlled society, she faces execution if discovered. After her father's betrayal led to her mother's death at government hands, Rowan fled to an underground city. There she found sanctuary among other outcasts, protection near Earth's last living tree, and possible love with the brave Lachlan. But government forces captured her, leaving her fate hanging in the balance. When Yarrow and Rowan uncover the connection linking their separate lives, colliding memories threaten to transform everything they believed about themselves. Their discovery could reshape not only their own destinies but the entire structure of Eden itself.
