Ninety seven years ago our ancestors nearly destroyed the earth. Ninety seven years ago Alexander Lyoid took his last breath and the last breath any human would ever take beyond these walls. The walls that keep us safe from the now, charred, and dead earth. The dome is our home now, without it we cannot survive. It's our sanctuary from pollution, just as the dome provides the earth sanctuary from us. It's where we live now. It's where we might always live so we cannot repeat the mistakes of the past. Esther, the daughter of a great council member is a perfectly put together picture. Perfect enough that nobody can tell that she's simply playing the part all too well. Just when her flawless little town becomes too much, she begins to crave all the more knowledge of Beyond. But everything suddenly changes when she runs into the mysterious, yet handsome Thames. Who abruptly puts the secrets of her town into a different light. Esther begins to wonder if ignorance is truly bliss, and if her life will ever be the same again?

"Just because you can't see something doesn't mean it ceases to exist. I believe in many invisible things- ghosts, Bigfoot, unicorns. Mainly, though, I believe in myself- the girl hidden within the pale blue walls of this five-room, two story building under the unnerving fluorescent lights. I'm the girl no one has ever seen. But I exist. Don't I?" Compound 4 was burned to the ground. Compound 5 was liberated. Compounds 2 and 3 wait patiently for Jay and Isaac to arrive with the vaccine that has been created to protect what's left of the human race from The Virus that nearly wiped them out fifteen years ago. That leaves Compound 1, nestled in the deep woods of the northern United States. The warning they sent to Jay's supporters was clear: stay away. But Jay's never been good at following directions. Outside Compound 1, a laboratory exists. The bottom floor is a home; the upper floor is anything but. Mya Julien's life consists of needles, machines, tests and sickness. Being immune comes with a price, and when a dark-haired stranger crashes unwillingly into their life, she and her brother Finn discover a haunting truth. No one can miss you, if no one knows you exist. This is the last installment in the Immune series. Be sure to check out book one (Immune) and book two (Selected) before reading.
