“The suspense and dread build as the mystery gradually unfolds . . . Fast-paced and gripping.” —School Library Journal, starred review

Devin doesn’t remember life before the world got hot; he has farmed the scorched earth with his grandfather in their remote valley. When his grandfather dies, Devin heads for the city for help on the farm, only to join the scores of children living on the streets. An act of kindness earns him an invitation to a haven for abandoned children, but behind the home’s unlimited food and toys lies a sinister agenda. Even if the home is as secure as a fortress, Devin and his new friends decide they must escape before succumbing to its horrors.

“[A] chilling and engrossing tale filled with detailed, sharply drawn characters . . . A standout.” —Kirkus Reviews, starred review

“This frightening and mysterious book surprised me again and again . . . When you read it, you will quickly discover one terrifying fact—there is no safe place!” —R. L. Stine
