About the Book:
Can the future ever erase the past?
Callie Rose has a Cross mother and a nought father in a society where the pale-skinned noughts are treated as inferiors and those with dual heritage face a life-long battle against deep-rooted prejudices.
Sephy, her mother, has told Rose virtually nothing about her father, but when Rose unexpectedly discovers the truth about her parentage, she finds herself drawn into a dangerous, deadly game – a game of very high stakes that can only have one winner. . .
The dramatic and intensely moving third novel in the award-winning Noughts and Crosses trilogy.
