When you turn 18 you're an offical "adult" and that's great, right? Not from where I come from. Once you turn 18, you die. Well, not everyone is killed. They draw only 25 names of boys and girls from my hometown who live. If you aren't picked then brace yourself to die. However, some have the option of joining the secret organization called the Remedy. Smart parents send their children there to train to defend themselves, like mine. I will admit it, at first I was totally against the fact of never seeing my parents again, but I have never been this brave and strong before until now. *********************** Katilynn Evans lives in a futuristic San Francisco re-named the Theory. A belief for past problems is over population. She and all the other 18 year olds in the Theory have to go to the government to receive a sign to determine whether of not they will be carrying on society or dying. Katilynn gets the least disirable choice and her parents send her away to a place to learn to defend herself. Katilynn has to remake herself into a new brave person, very different than the person she was before.

Imagine the second you're born, a consultant removes you from your mother's grasp and runs a battery of genetic and physiological tests on you. Thirty minutes later they give you a score out of one hundred which denotes your level of perfection. If your score is above eighty and you work hard to maintain that score you will have a charmed life; well fed, well-rewarded, spoiled. But fall below eighty and you're labelled Flawed, and life will not be so kind. Hannah is adopted by a Flawed family when her birth parents choose their social standing over their daughter and endures a life of struggle, hunger and service.
