Especially when shes assigned a new chaperone just days later.n nSister Laura is...different. She has radical ideas about what Stella should be doing. She leaves Stella alone in public and even knows how to get into the Hush Hush parties where all kinds of forbidden things happen. As Stella spends more time with Sister Laura, she begins to question everything shes been taught. What if the Constables rules dont actually protect girls? What if they were never meant to keep them safe?n nOnce Stella glimpses both real freedom and the dark truths behind New America, she has no choice but to fight back against the world she knows, risking everything to set out on a dangerous journey across what used to be the United States.n
