Spun off from Hugh Howey's World of WOOL (the SILO Saga)...the sequel to REBEL STATE: HIDDEN!
A few weeks ago, an uprising took place in the California Silo--one that had horrifying consequences. In its aftermath, many of the silo's residents are struggling. Why were those people chosen to die? Were they wrong to do what they did? And how can you go about your daily life when you aren't sure what might be seen as an unforgivable crime?
David Brownell, now the Head of IT, is in the worst position of all. He's the one who carried out those horrific orders, and he's determined never to have to do such a thing again. But there's an enormous threat hanging over his head--and the heads of everyone he loves. Watching from somewhere not far away, the unseen Others can simply press a button and destroy the entire silo if David refuses to obey them. The question becomes, can he carry the weight of that threat alone, as his predecessor did, or will he sidestep the rules of the Order and accept the help that's being offered from all around him?
