Fireflies in Flight (The Towers, #2)

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

With the intensity of The Handmaid's Tale, the drama of Divergent, and the political intrigue of The Darkest Minds series, this is a captivating, fast-paced thriller set in a dystopian world not so different from our own.

Ally is on the run.

The city is in ruins.

Her friends are in mortal danger.

Nothing about being back in the city is easy, but Ally knows that she must find the missing research before ONE does. The Administration has tight control of the capital and there are eyes everywhere.

As tension builds in the city, Ally learns that the go-ahead has already been given to start the deadly experiments on her friends who are still locked up in the Towers.

In a race against time, Ally is forced to risk everything. Will she be able to find the hidden research? Can she get back to the Towers to save her friends before it's too late?

And can she really trust Josh, the handsome resistance group leader?

This powerful conclusion to The Snow Laundry draws you into Ally's world: a dystopian tyranny not so different to our own.
