On the planet Mirron, the color of your eyes decides your place in the world.
Topaz eyes are at the top. Pearl eyes are at the bottom. Isabelle Ashford—a Pearl raised by a Topaz family—was once offered the chance to trade her eyes for the advantages a higher-ranking color would bring. She turned it down. Now Izzy is older, and the order she grew up in is starting to crack. Across Mirron, protests are spreading, and old certainties are giving way. But the people who benefit most from the way things are have no intention of letting them change—and they're prepared to go further than anyone expected. Izzy, along with two others she's bound to, is being pulled toward the center of a reckoning Mirron has avoided for all of recorded history.
Standing up is one thing. Surviving the people determined to keep the world exactly as it is turns out to be another. As friendships deepen, a first love takes hold, and a traitor moves unseen among them, Izzy learns that becoming who she's meant to be will cost more than she ever imagined. The question was never whether Mirron would change. It's whether Izzy will still be standing when it does.
Perfect for readers of Red Queen, The Giver, and Divergent.
