Ara Murphy never wanted to be a mother, but the law is clear. She’s fertile, which means her body belongs to the human race.
It’s the year is 2067, and the world has been ravaged by pandemics. The population has dwindled, and fertile women are a rare and valuable commodity. In hopes of preserving our species, the United States has passed the Fertility Act, forcing all women to be screened. Participation in the program is supposed to be straightforward. Three years, one baby, then freedom.
But as Ara navigates the complex and invasive procedures within the program, she’s plagued by questions. Is the government really looking out for the good of the people, or do they have hidden motives? And how much more can they take from her in the name of survival?
Perfect for fans of The Handmaid's Tale, Station Eleven, The Power, and Vox, this dystopian tale of courage and bravery will keep you turning pages!
