Una corsa contro il tempo in un mondo sconvolto dal cambiamento climatico.\r\n\r\nDa tempo la siccità non dà tregua alla California.

Quando i suoi genitori non tornano a casa, Alyssa capisce che la sua vita e quella di suo fratello sono in pericolo, e sarà costretta a fare delle scelte difficili, se intende sopravvivere.

\"A true successor to The Hunger Games.\" Maggie Stiefvater\n\nIn a perfect world, what is there left to fear? A chilling and thought-provoking sci-fi novel from New York Times bestselling author Neal Shusterman.\n\nA dark, gripping and witty thriller in which the only thing humanity has control over is death. \n\nIn a world where disease, war and crime have been eliminated, the only way to die is to be randomly killed (\"gleaned\") by professional scythes.
