Sit up straight, chin up, shoulders back Do not speak until spoken to, do not stutter, keep answers short and concise Do not smile, do not frown, do not laugh, do not sigh Punishments will be harsh on any offenders. In a world where individuality is suppressed and failure has no tolerance, one girl struggles to keep up with the crippling expectations placed upon her, barely surviving each day all while relentlessly trying to stand out among a sea of faceless, nameless units. Rebellions rage outside the facility's walls as two sides clash for control in a violent, stagnant struggle. The idea of Insurgents had always seemed so distant to her...something she's heard of all her life, but never seen. But when the two worlds finally collide, she finds herself thrust into an journey of discovery to find out who she really is and maybe find love in an unexpected way.
