"Nous serons tous la résistance."
Un thriller dystopien passionnant qui aborde des thèmes plus contemporains que jamais : justice, discrimination, terrorisme, dérives génétiques – et qui dévoile un futur proche aussi terrifiant que crédible.
La révolte bat son plein. Les Ones, ce 1 % de chanceux sélectionnés par le gouvernement pour être génétiquement modifiés à la naissance, sont cernés. Et le mouvement Égalité n'a jamais été aussi puissant.
Farouchement déterminée à sauver son petit ami James qui s'est sacrifié pour elle, Cody se met à frayer avec un groupe de rebelles qui défend les droits des Ones envers et contre tout. Mais alors qu'elle se rapproche de leur leader, le mystérieux Kai, elle comprend rapidement que celui-ci a un plan plus fou que tout ce qu'elle aurait imaginé. Un plan qui pourrait changer le futur des Ones pour toujours. Et elle sait que Kai ne reculera devant rien...

KAI: "You said that every movement needed extremists. The wackos. The bogeymen. The lunatics who want to watch the world burn. If those extremists exist, then by definition there's a more reasonable group to negotiate with. The civilized ones, the house-cats. You said that if any group wants something bad enough from the people in power, they just need to have their crazies start burning things down. After that, the rest of them will seem a lot more tolerable."
EDITH: "You're smart. You understood me."
KAI: "Oh, I understood you perfectly. And then I went out and did it! Exactly like you told me to."
EDITH: "And look how well that's worked. They're terrified of us. The government has lost its mind. The laws they put into place, the camps, the restrictions- it's all absurd. If we didn't make them panic, if we didn't count on them to overreact, we'd be finished. Who could possibly sympathize with a group of kids born with every possible advantage? Slowly but surely they would have marginalized us. But a group of kids hauled out of their mothers' arms and dragged off to an internment camp? Now that's sympathetic."
[...]"[Kai] knew that with a simple insistence of "Ones first", Edith could justify any decision or punishment."
