Fans of the Divergent series will love this dystopian thriller! Life is grand for Patch, the hotshot superstar of the hunting clan, until dead bodies start turning up in the Marketplace. Detective Jimmy Lask can't get any answers—not about the murders he's trying to solve, not about his mysterious new boss, and not about the ranks of enforcement officers that seem to multiply daily all around him. His gut tells him to trust no one, but Lask forms an unlikely alliance with the brash, young hunter whose appetite for illegal herbs might get them both killed. Together, they build a rag-tag army that must set aside ancient rivalries to battle the forces determined to destroy the clan system, the very foundation of a free Isotopia.
