Omschrijving
"They say there is no life above. They are the government. They are the men that rule over us. Our ancestors doomed us to live below ground as the man-made virus swept over the earth."
Ninety years after a deadly virus destroyed the world above, descendants of the only survivors remain confined to an underground bunker. Although a haven at the onset of the virus, this underground world is now a place of torment.
The Laws of Terra Convex are clear. Leadership decides where each citizen will work, who each citizen will marry, and even the names of all the children. They also decide when each citizen will die.
The trade-off is a life without fear of the deadly virus that waits above.
The trade-off is a life of oppression. A life without art, imagination, or curiosity.
Amelia, a teenager with a reputation for asking too many questions, stumbles upon a room with the only window in Terra Convex. Knowing that she is nearing the Age of Marital Responsibility, she begins to imagine a life outside the underground bunker.
All she can do is imagine.
Until one day, Amelia sees something that changes everything. Something that could explain why Leadership doesn't allow questions.
What Amelia sees on the other side of the only window in Terra Convex could be the proof she needs to convince the community it's time to rise against the government.
Or it could be the very thing that causes her to lose everything. Including her life.
Amelia must decide how much she is willing to risk to uncover the lies of Leadership.
How many must die for the secrets from above to be revealed?
