Rising Up

A prophetic dream. A mysterious death. And a powerful secret.

Ember's mother dies suddenly from an unnatural disease...

...but she is not allowed to grieve.

In this city, only happy emotions are allowed.

Feelings are monitored by Alts, specialized smart watches.

The laws are strict. Those who don't rise up are banished.

There is no escape.

As she struggles with her pain, she meets Will, a hero loyal to the city, and she risks everything for love. They uncover shocking truths about her mother's death and the perfect society in which they live. A forbidden relationship with Xander, a known criminal, further raises the stakes, putting the trio in peril.

Will they succeed in their quest for the truth, or will they die trying?
