Waiting on Wednesday
A weekly meme hosted by Breaking the Spine that spotlights upcoming releases that people are eagerly anticipating.
My choice for Waiting on Wednesday this week is:
The Murder Complex
by Lindsay Cummings
Publication: June 10th 2014 by Greenwillow Books, 400 pages
An action-packed, blood-soaked, futuristic debut
thriller set in a world where the murder rate is higher than the birthrate. For
fans of Moira Young’s Dust Lands series, La Femme Nikita, and the movie Hanna.
Meadow Woodson, a fifteen-year-old girl who has been trained by her father to fight, to kill, and to survive in any situation, lives with her family on a houseboat in Florida. The state is controlled by The Murder Complex, an organization that tracks the population with precision.
The plot starts to thicken when Meadow meets Zephyr James, who is—although he doesn’t know it—one of the MC’s programmed assassins. Is their meeting a coincidence? Destiny? Or part of a terrifying strategy? And will Zephyr keep Meadow from discovering the haunting truth about her family?
Action-packed, blood-soaked, and chilling, this is a dark and compelling debut novel by Lindsay Cummings.
