Grade 9 and up: After surviving a hurricane, 17 year-old Nadifa Duale finds himself imprisoned and enslaved deep beneath an empty expanse of North American farm country - a place where men with ambitions of racial cleansing come to practice their nightmares unchecked on those declared missing. But when a mad scientist's experiment to hold onto power goes terribly wrong, Nadifa and his fellow captives find themselves in a new kind of fight for survival, one where they might be thankful for the electric fence surrounding their prison.Because now, the dead do not stay dead.
