Kimberly Durting's original and incredibly romantic dystopia will not leave true fans of the genre indifferent. The inhabitants of the country of Ludania are divided into classes, each of which has its own language. The smallest offense—looking into the eyes of a person higher on the social ladder when he speaks his native language—results in immediate execution. Seventeen-year-old Charleena understands languages of all classes from birth and carefully guards her secret. The only place where she can feel free is illegal clubs, where people temporarily forget about the repressive rules of society. In one of these clubs, Charleena meets the mysterious, handsome Max, who speaks a language she has never heard. Her secret is almost revealed... but is this a chance to free herself and others from the hated system? Danger and mystery, fear and romance - this is a powerful combination , which gives the novel a special charm. A must read for fans of The Hunger Games and Divergent books!
