Follow Penny, Ryan and Giles for their senior year. Penny is an exchange student running from her past. Ryan is the king jock, looking for something more in life. Giles is the wholesome boy next door. When Penny steps into the lives of the two boys, everything changes as their pasts collide, secrets are revealed, and bitter truths are faced. All Penny's perspective uses Australian spelling. The boys use American spelling. I thought it would make it a little more authentic!

Daughter4254 used to think life in a community where art, music and names are outlawed would suffocate her creative spirit. Now that she’s rotting in a prison cell, she’s not sure her dying mother made the right choice when she entrusted her with the secrets of rebellion. Prison has given her plenty of time to relive every mistake and lose all hope. Her next stop is the MindWipe. Then she meets Thomas, a fellow inmate, who tells her stories of the mythical mountain colonies where people have names and the arts thrive. Together they plot an escape, knowing if they fail, they will die. Or worse, their consciousness will be taken by the MindWipe, leaving their bodies free for the government to use. When nothing goes as planned, Daughter4254 must choose between using her mother's secret to better the world she hates, or following Thomas to the quiet life of freedom she has always craved.
