She came for revenge and ended up starting a rebellion.
In the remains of post-war Australia, lies the Citadel. A fortress city built to sustain the last survivors of the great Famine. In order to maintain their power, these survivors - the Seeders - genetically modified the landscape so that each seed borne by the most innocuous plant became poison.
Since the night the Seeders murdered her mother, sixteen year old Rory Gray has been consumed by a burning desire for revenge.
When her region is sanctioned for aiding rebels, Rory is dragged back to the Citadel after years in exile. Believing her chance for revenge has finally come, the reality of the Citadel is terrifying.
The chief plant geneticist is dying. Rumours fly that the store of viable seed is dwindling. The Seeders are desperate to find a seed bank they believe only Rory can locate, and they will stop at nothing to get it.
Terrified and alone, Rory must place her trust in a boy who once betrayed her. To defy the Seeders means death. But Rory has been close to death before - this time she's learned the value of poison.
Fans of the Hunger Games and Legend will enjoy this action packed adventure with a strong heroine, diverse characters and a touch of romance.
Genre: Young Adult Fantasy
