Publisher's Summary

Like all citizens since the ruining, Carrington Hale knows the importance of this day. But she never expected the moment she'd spent a lifetime preparing for - her choosing ceremony - to end in disaster. Ripped from her family, she'll spend her days serving as a lint, the lowest level of society. She knows it's her duty to follow the true way of the authority.

But as Carrington begins this nightmare, rumors of rebellion rattle her beliefs. Though the whispers contradict everything she's been told, they resonate deep within.

Then Carrington is offered an unprecedented chance at the life she's always dreamed of, yet she can't shake the feeling that it may be an illusion. With a killer targeting lints and corruption threatening the highest levels of the authority, Carrington must uncover the truth before it destroys her.

Wonderful perspective yet missing something

Isaac is presented as an accurate portrayal of the killing nature of the law but there is something missing in the redemptive side presented by Aaron. It seems to lean a little towards predestination theology. We are all indeed chosen but we need to chose to follow as well and accept redemption from Gods grace, not from hollow works of man. Still, the knowledge that we are indeed perfect in His sight is refreshing, even if the story glosses over actual Biblical truth a little.
