Fever

Lauren DeStefano's Wither was called a 'thought-provoking debut, reminiscent of The Handmaid's Tale' by Kirkus Reviews. Its chilling follow-up, Fever continues 16-year-old Rhine's tale-set in a dark future in which men and women die by age 25, and young girls are sold into marriage to keep the population growing. Rhine has finally escaped her marriage. But what hope can the outside world offer when death looms ever closer?
