Quick, painless, and simpleit works. Every time. No one now dares risk taking a life.</p><p>The politicians say they have saved the world, creating a perfect global society where everyone can feel safe and secure.</p><p>Unless, that is, youre deemed a threat to this perfect order</p><p>Despite efforts to conform, Talon and Sofia are removed from high school and ripped from their lives in Ridge Crest. The lifelong friends find themselves alone and in separate and alien environments where they feel discarded, distrusted, and despised.</p><p>Talon is enslaved in a labor camp where the warden wants him dead. And while Talon tries to figure out the source of this wrath, he also needs to survive the punishing work, the harsh sun, and the suicide-killer stalking him day and night if hes to keep the promise he made to Sofiato stay alive. At the Technology Lab, Sofia is determined to find out the location of the remote center where Talon is interred and hopes the notorious "Shadow," whose mere proximity brings danger, really does want to help her escape and connect with <em>the disconnects</em>.</p><p>Meanwhile, the head of the NAC Program, General Stafford, knows its time to deal with the increasing threat of <em>the disconnects</em>, who have managed to escape the law of kill and be killed. Hell need the help of Sofia and Talon to achieve his goal. But that doesnt mean he needs them alive.</p><p>A sci-fi thriller-adventure set in the near future, STUNG posits todays question of whether security or freedom is more important to society and how the next generation either bends to societys will or fights to sow the seeds of change. Suitable for young adults (16 years) and adults who enjoy stories of enduring friendship and loyalty at their heart.</p><p>"A really interesting concept The characters work really well and the concept is terrifying!"</p><p> 5-star NetGalley review</p><p>"I found certain elements of this book quite unsettling!"</p><p> 5-star NetGalley review</p><p><strong>Trigger warnings</strong>: features elements of <em>separation anxiety</em>, <em>loss of a loved one</em>, <em>bullying</em>, and <em>loss of life</em> (non-graphic).</p>...9781915221148_Papillon du Pre Publishinglibro_electonico_9781915221148_9781915221148Cullen ScottInglésMéxicohttps://getbook.kobo.com/koboid-prod-public/draft2digital_ipp-epub-b4a24ed6-0839-4443-8a03-71369c314c08.epub2024-02-07T00:00:00+00:00Papillon du Pre Publishing
