Description:
Hurley Vance. It is a name spray painted on alley walls, and spoken in careful whispers. But to Lessers, it’s more than a name.
As a deranged Financial Minister and an arrogant President grapple for control over an obedient population, a violated Lesser underclass can only wait and see which dictator triumphs. 22-year-old Hurley Vance embarks on a plan to manipulate the warring Equals and liberate Evangeline Street, an imprisoned rebel leader idolized by her followers. Alongside a brutally rough friend named Sig Jaxson, Hurley leads a troublesome band of Lesser renegades. They are out to stoke a revolution, and defend a group of people who have been abused for far too long.
But the oppressors are everywhere. Roaming Watchers prowl the streets. District Speakers champion thoughts of forced equality. Filtering Houses cleanse literature, and Alteration Clinics punish the different. Unfortunately for Equal statesmen and their worshipping legions, Hurley Vance is determined to end their reign.
Obedience is a virtue. And the truth must be whispered.
A few among the subservient population strive for something more. Son of a powerful Equal senator and brutalized for his beliefs, 22-year-old Hurley Vance desires to be his own person. After saving a woman from a Watcher’s violent cruelty, Hurley becomes a symbol. Evangeline Street, an opposition leader who rejects State enslavement, asks that he joins a rebellious countermovement based in Building 86.
Now, Hurley must choose between a safe life of government protection or one of danger and revolution
