This was an interesting read. Short chapters which I love and they are action packed!

The story starts with brothers finding a body on the outskirts of their town. They decide to take the body and burn it as they are supposed to. However, once close enough the body speaks. It says “help me”.

From there a whole bunch of stuff happens. It’s everything from betrayal, double lives, healing, mystery, action - even pregnant ladies. 

The concept here is so interesting. The world as we know it is no more - except for one class of human being pitted against another - which really resonates with current times. 

I enjoyed this book wholeheartedly!
