We

by Christelle Dabos, Hildegarde Serle (Translator)

From the author of the Mirror Visitor quartet, a new, heart-stopping adventure

Everyone has an Instinct. And everything is perfect.

In a world ruled by “We” each person has a role, a direction, a mission assigned by their Instinct. No choice. No deviation. No freedom.

But when some students disappear into silence, Claire, who has always felt out of place, and Goliath, determined to become a Saint before time runs out, find themselves questioning everything. As they follow forbidden trails, escape a murderous Archangel, and discover that “We” is not at all what it seems, all their certainties will be shattered.

About the author

Christelle Dabos was born in 1980 on the French Riviera and grew up in a home filled with classical music and historical puzzles. More imaginative than cerebral, she begins to scribble her first texts on the benches of the faculty. Settled in Belgium, she intends to be a librarian when a disease occurs. Writing then becomes an escape from the medical machinery, then a slow reconstruction and finally second nature. Meanwhile, she enjoys the society of Plume d´Argent, a community of authors on the Internet. It was thanks to their encouragement that she decided to take on her very first literary challenge: to enter the First Youth Novel Contest. Great winner among the three finalists, Christelle Dabos has written 4 books in the "La Passe-Miroir" series.
