In this "magical, terrifying, and whimsical debut" (Publishers Weekly), a biological disaster reverberates in Ohio Amish country long after the near-extinction of humanity. A young woman must try to save what remains of the human race. A "mesmerizing end-of-the-world adventure." (Kirkus Reviews)
Root is...different. Though raised in a fearful society that reveres conformity, she's irreverent, outspoken, and deeply curious. Her congenital blindness sets her even further apart.
Centuries after the Reckoning, a genetic engineering disaster that nearly extinguished the human race, terrifying mutations are afflicting people as they haven't in generations. When Root hears a voice that no one else can hear, she flees into the wilderness. Outcast and hunted, she must confront a dire threat to her people--and unravel the mystery of who she really is.
