They made it legal to hunt minorities on weekends. They turned healthcare into a game show. They spliced the human genome until it wept strange, shunned tribes across the burnt, ruined edges of the republic.
Noah Harpster doesn’t care about any of it. Three-time felon, full-time pickpocket, professional ghost—he has spent his whole life perfecting the art of not mattering. Stay small, keep your head down, stay slippery, stay alive.
Then he meets Parlisse.
She is a beautiful, biracial climatologist and painter, navigating a nation that has sharpened every old cruelty into policy. She may also be tangled in a resistance network so dangerous that loving her is an act of war. Her twin sister almost certainly is.

In a world that rewards silence with survival, Noah Harpster is about to become very, very loud.
