A fallen regime. A missing child. A chance at freedom. By the #1
New York Times bestselling author of Divergent, Poster Girl is a
haunting adult dystopian mystery that explores the expanding role
of surveillance on society - an inescapable reality that we welcome
all too easily. WHAT'S RIGHT IS RIGHT. Sonya Kantor knows this
slogan - she lived by it for most of her life. For decades,
everyone in the Seattle-Portland megalopolis lived under it, as
well as constant surveillance in the form of the Insight, an ocular
implant that tracked every word and every action, rewarding or
punishing by a rigid moral code set forth by the Delegation. Then
there was a revolution. The Delegation fell. Its most valuable
members were locked in the Aperture, a prison on the outskirts of
the city. And everyone else, now free from the Insight's
monitoring, went on with their lives. Sonya, former poster girl for
the Delegation, has been imprisoned for ten years when an old enemy
comes to her with a deal: find a missing girl who was stolen from
her parents by the old regime, and earn her freedom. The path Sonya
takes to find the child will lead her through an unfamiliar,
crooked post-Delegation world where she finds herself digging
deeper into the past - and her family's dark secrets - than she
ever wanted to. Praise for Veronica Roth 'Poster Girl cements
Veronica Roth's status as a superstar' Gregg Hurwitz, #1
International bestselling author of the Orphan X series 'Veronica
Roth's latest outing will draw you into its broken world, and make

redemption and regret that kept me riveted and guessing until the
last page' Hugh Howey, New York Times bestselling author of Wool
and Across the Sand 'Veronica Roth is the cure for all those
humdrum 'one true saviour' narratives' Charlie Jane Anders, Hugo
and Nebula Award-winning author of THE CITY IN THE MIDDLE OF THE
NIGHT, on CHOSEN ONES 'Roth has pulled off a virtuoso performance'
