Piper Pascal has spent her life on the Escape, a city-sized cruise liner holding all that's left of America. She does not remember the world before the Flood. All she knows is that she'll do anything to please the Godmother, the head of the Escape, the only parent Piper has ever really had. Since age six, Piper has been a spy for the Godmother's cult of secret police. Food, friendships, sleep, population—the Godmother controls it all. If you disobey, Piper will catch you.

Until one day—Piper Pascal finds the one thing the Godmother hates most. A baby. A child born without permission.
