Celestine North lives in a society that demands perfection. After she was
branded Flawed by a morality court, Celestine’s life has completely
fractured–all her freedoms gone.

Since Judge Crevan has declared her the number one threat to the public,
she has been a ghost, on the run with Carrick–the only person she can trust.

But Celestine has a secret–one that could bring the entire Flawed system
crumbling to the ground. A secret that has already caused countless people to
go missing.

Judge Crevan is gaining the upper hand, and time is running out for
Celestine. With tensions building, Celestine must make a choice: save just
herself or to risk her life to save all Flawed people.

And, most important of all, can she prove that to be human in itself is
to be Flawed?

Celestine North lives a perfect life. She’s a model daughter and sister,
she’s well-liked by her classmates and teachers, and she’s dating the
impossibly charming Art Crevan.

But then Celestine encounters a situation in which she makes an instinctive
decision. She breaks a rule and now faces life-changing repercussions. She
could be imprisoned. She could be branded. She could be found FLAWED.

In her breathtaking young adult debut, bestselling author Cecelia Ahern depicts
a society in which perfection is paramount and flaws are punished. And where
one young woman decides to take a stand that could cost her everything.

They stay there for three hours. My muscles burn, my feet
ache, but I’m afraid to move. When the fire has
reduced to a smolder, Granddad and Dahy are ordered to place the bundles of

food onto the coals. The farmworkers watch from their orderly line, their F brand armbands all visible on their
right arms, just above their elbow.

This was supposed to be
a celebration, a coming together to show that the Guild couldn’t beat them
down. Now the Whistleblowers themselves are here. Hiding behind the tree,
huddled on the ground, hugging my legs, shivering from the damp forest, I can’t
say that I feel empowered. This feels like a defeat.

Granddad and Dahy cover
the food with the soil so it will cook under the ground in the heat. Granddad
looks at the ground, his work finished, as though he’s buried me alive. Again I
want to call out to him that I’m okay, I made it out, but I can’t.

A phone rings and the
female Whistleblower takes it. She steps aside, walks away from the others, so
she can talk in private. She moves closer to me in the woods. I tense up again.

“Judge Crevan, hello.
It’s Kate. No, Judge, Celestine isn’t here. We’ve checked everywhere.”

Silence as she listens
and I hear Crevan’s voice from where I stand. Kate walks farther and stops by
my tree.

I press my back to the
tree, squeeze my eyes shut, and hold my breath.

“With all due respect,
Judge, this is the Guild’s sixth visit to the property and I believe Mary May
was meticulous in her search. We’ve checked everywhere you can imagine. I don’t
believe she’s here. I think the grandfather is telling the truth.”

I can hear the
frustration in her voice. They’re all under pressure to find me, pressure
placed on them by Judge Crevan. Kate takes a few more steps, right into my
eyeline.

She slowly scans the
forest, her eyes searching the distance.

Then she looks right at
me.
