About this book

In the ruins of civilization a young girls kindness and capacity for love will either save humanity -- or wipe it out in this USA Today bestselling thriller Joss Whedon calls "heartfelt remorseless and painfully human." Melanie is a very special girl. Dr Caldwell calls her "our little genius." Every morning Melanie waits in her cell to be collected for class. When they come for her Sergeant keeps his gun pointed at her while two of his people strap her into the wheelchair. She thinks they dont like her. She jokes that she wont bite but they dont laugh.
