From the New York Times bestselling author of The Glass Sentence, a lightly speculative, relevant puzzle box with undertones of Never Let Me Go.
The time is now. The place is San Francisco. The world is filled with adults devoid of emotion and children on the cusp of losing their feelings—of "waning"—when they reach their teens.
Natalia Peña has already waned. So why does she love her little brother with such ferocity that, when he's kidnapped by a Big Brother-esque corporation, she'll do anything to get him back?
From the New York Times bestselling author of The Glass Sentence comes this haunting story of one determined girl who will use her razor-sharp wits, her martial arts skills, and, ultimately, her heart to fight killers, predators, and the world's biggest company to rescue her brother—and to uncover the shocking truth about waning.

      Narrators Kyla Garcia, Julio Sanchez, and Arthur Morey combine their talents to describe a disturbing future in which people gradually lose all their emotions. Primary narrator Garcia adeptly gives voice to Nat Pe�a, a young woman whose emotions have already waned but whose younger brother, Cal, is still emotionally responsive. With complete believability, Garcia communicates Nat's panic when Cal is kidnapped by the pharmaceutical giant RealCorp. Her performance is compelling, although her passionate delivery can seem at odds with Nat's emotionless state. In supporting roles, Sanchez and Morey are expressive and sympathetic. Morey is particularly effective at conveying the twisty but tender side of the complicated Dr. Glout. Listeners will be captivated by this gripping, if somewhat uneven, production.
