Alina
has been stealing for a long time. She's a little jittery, but not terrified. All she knows is that she's never been caught before. If she's careful, it'll be easy. If she's careful.

Quinn
should be worried about Alina and a bit afraid for himself, too, but even though this is dangerous, it's also the most interesting thing to happen to him in ages. It isn't every day that the girl of your dreams asks you to rescue her.
Bea
wants to tell him that none of this is fair; they'd planned a trip together, the two of them, and she'd hoped he'd discover her out here, not another girl.
And as they walk into the Outlands with two days' worth of oxygen in their tanks, everything they believe will be shattered. Will they be able to make it back? Will they want to?
Why Jessica wants to read this: I really like end of the world / dystopian tales and this seems like one that our world could really reach one day. Scary!

Sounds interesting. I'm always up for a good post-apocalyptic story, and I like the corporate twist here - talk about a monopoly!

I always enjoy the dystopian/post-apocalyptic novels that seem more plausible, more realistic. This one sounds like it will be great. Thanks for sharing!
