Live Evil

This is the story of a man who knows nothing and a woman who knows everything.

Life in the dystopian town of Wayne is not easy--the diligent law enforcement, Watchers, will kill you for even looking at them the wrong way, food is scarce and allotted in strict rations, and the single cemetery is far too small to hold all the people the Watchers have done away with--and Leon knows that well. His lonely life in Wayne comes to an end, however, when he is approached by the resident genius Trist, a lively redhead with a brilliant mind, a bold nature, and the only existing map on the continent.

Trist leads Leon and seven others towards a village that she promises will be better than anything they've ever imagined, all the while filling in the blanks of her map. But Trist's strange tendency to switch personalities from night to day draws Leon's attention, and he soon realizes that this genius is hiding more secrets than just her forbidden map.

As the refugees travel, learning more about the world and each other as they go, Leon becomes drawn into Trist's world--and he soon learns that this girl knows better than anyone what it's like to Live Evil.
