Unwinding is now an accepted practice in the world, thanks to the Bill of Life, just with some rules that come with it: the parents can volunteer their child before they turn 18. Together, they may have a chance to escape and to survive. And Lev is a tithe, a child conceived and raised to be unwound. Risa, a ward of the state is not talented enough to be kept alive. Connor is too difficult for his parents to control. Between the ages of thirteen and eighteen, however, parents can have their child "unwound," whereby all of the child's organs are transplanted into different donors, so life doesn't technically end. The chilling resolution: Life is inviolable from the moment of conception until age thirteen. The Second Civil War was fought over reproductive rights. Connor, Risa, and Lev are running for their lives.
