A brutal and hopeful story about the dangers of blind faith and the power of believing in yourself. The Kevinian cult has taken everything from seventeen-year-old Minnow Bly: twelve years of her life, her family, her ability to trust. And when she rebelled, he took her hands away too. But now the Prophet is dead and the Community is burned to the ground. Bloodied and tortured, Minnow, the main witness to the incident, ends up in a juvenile prison. She herself and her relatives are suspected of numerous crimes. Minnow is forced to forget everything she was taught in the Community in order to survive behind bars. The FBI offers the girl a deal: long-awaited freedom in exchange for an honest story about that night. But she will never, ever tell the whole truth about the death of the Prophet. What is Minnow Bly hiding? Brilliantly written, gripping and infused with sparks of unexpected humor, this shocking debut is perfect for fans of Emily Murdoch's If You Find Me and Nova Ren Suma's The Walls Around Us, as well as fans of the Orange is the series New Black.
