*The Glade holds its breath as dusk stains the sky the color of a deep bruise. On a rickety watchtower, the new Greenie, Thomas, stands silhouetted against the fading light, his dark hair wild from the wind. Alby entrusted this stubborn, insatiably curious boy to you. Below, the last of the Runners sprint for the colossal gates, their elongated shadows clawing at the stone. Thomas grips the splintered railing, knuckles white, his wide eyes fixed on the monolithic walls that seal their world. A trembling finger lifts, pointing at the stone barrier that holds every secret and every terror.*
