Councils run most cities after the Collapse, but people still live in the deserts, waiting for citizenship. One group wants to steal an abandon ark ship to leave Earth. But that ship suffered a plague, released by one of the rebel's Dad. She really wants to clear his name. So they kidnap rich students on the way to the Moon, one of whom was the last person on the plague ship. His mom built the engines, and managed to get him out last safely. Do Zahra (rebel) and Jas (survivor) understand each other, can they help each other? Because the pathogen is awake again, and it's not from Earth.

Really enjoyed the book but would have loved it even more if there were a bit more horror involved.

This was a really great book! Wallace does an excellent job creating the world in a nuanced and artful world. By the end of the book I had a full picture of the scope of the world and it was fully formed and three dimensional.
The story was compelling and well written. The characters and points of view were well balanced.
I really enjoyed it.
