Agnes knows she loves her home of Red Creek--its quiet, sunny
mornings, its dusty roads, and its God. There, she cares tirelessly
for her younger siblings and follows the town's strict laws. What
she doesn't know is that Red Creek is a cult, controlled by a
madman who calls himself a prophet. Then Agnes meets Danny, an
Outsider boy, and begins to question what is and isn't a sin. Her
younger brother, Ezekiel, will die without the insulin she barters
for once a month, even though medicine is considered outlawed. Is
she a sinner for saving him? Is her sister, Beth, a sinner for
dreaming of the world beyond Red Creek? As the Prophet grows more
dangerous, Agnes realizes she must escape with Ezekiel and leave
everyone else, including Beth, behind. But it isn't safe Outside,
either: A viral pandemic is burning through the population at a
terrifying rate. As Agnes ventures forth, a mysterious connection
grows between her and the Virus, allowing her to heal the infected.
But in a world where faith, miracles, and cruelty have long been
indistinguishable, will Agnes be able to choose between saving her
family and saving the world?
