About the Book
Ā The best-kept secrets in 2041 America are the deadliest ones. A mysterious scarlet haired jazz singer. A rebel on a motorcycle. And a killer with a penchant for torture. Food is scarce, good jobs the rarity, and big brother is watching everyone. Will Jack and Tomās family be torn apart in the mayhem, and how far will one brother go to save the otherās life? In 2041, America is rife with ghettos and armed checkpoints, and poverty runs rampant. A bloody civil war is brewing, and everyone will be forced to take a side. Education is the only way out of a life where youāre never sure where your next meal will come from, or what youāll have to do to get it. Tom aced his assessment tests and scored an education contract, giving him a way out of poverty. Jack isnāt so lucky. When Jack, a spy for a rebel fraction, goes missing, only his brother Tom can unravel the mystery of his disappearance. He will risk everything to save his brother from Warren, a killer who enjoys torturing his victims and making them beg for mercy. On a mission, Tom plunges into a world filled with secretive rebel groups and spies, psychotic killers, lies and murder at the highest levels of political influence. When he also discovers that his family has been keeping secrets from himāsecrets that threaten to doom them allāhe doesnāt know whom to trust. Tom must break every rule he's lived by, and go head-to-head with a psychopath, if he's to have any chance of saving his brotherāand just maybe, keep America from reaching the fracture point.
