';Red Dawn meets Escape from New York and The Hunger Games' (Booklist) in an action-packed dystopian fantasy filled with ';prose [that] is gorgeous and brilliant' and ';tells a satisfyingly dark tale through alternating the two sisters' points of view' (VOYA, starred review).Its been nearly two decades since the Red Allies first attacked New York, and Manhattan is now a prisoner-of-war camp, ruled by Rolladin and her brutal, impulsive warlords. For Skyler Miller, Manhattan is a cage that keeps her from the world beyond the citys borders. But for Skys younger sister, Phee, the POW camp is a dangerous playground of possibility, and the only home shed ever want. When Sky and Phee discover their moms hidden journal from the wars outbreak, they both realize theres more to Manhattanand their motherthan either of them had ever imagined. And after a group of strangers arrives at the annual POW census, the girls begin to uncover the islands long-kept secrets. The strangers hail from England, a country supposedly destroyed by the Red Allies, and Rolladins lies about Manhattans captivity begin to unravel. Hungry for the truth, the sisters set a series of events in motion that end in the death of one of Rolladins guards. Now theyre outlaws, forced to join the strange Englishmen on an escape mission through Manhattan. Their flight takes them into subways haunted by cannibals, into the arms of a sadistic cult in the citys Meatpacking District and, through the pages of their moms old journal, into the islands dark and shocking past.
