Description

Everyone knows The Registry saved America from collapse. Which is why girls are raised to be brides auctioned off to the highest bidder, and boys are raised by the government to be hardened soldiers. Everyone accepts this as their patriotic duty, except for two girls who are determined to find a way out. 18-year-old Mia escapes with her best friend Whitney, who's been on the marriage block for a year and will end up working as a slave if no one chooses to marry her. Chased by government agents, they make it to Mexico, where a free if uncertain future awaits...
