The ruthless ruling party, known as The Committee, has brought her and five others to the island in search of a successor to the fallen Committee member.

However, his passing wasn't peaceful- it was murder, by the hands of a clueless Iris. How far will The Dictator's wrath take her in exchange for revenge?
