Summary via Goodreads:
There are three rules in the Walled City: Run fast. Trust no one. Always carry your knife. Right now, my life depends completely on the first. Run, run, run.
Jin, Mei Yee, and Dai all live in the Walled City, a lawless labyrinth run by crime lords and overrun by street gangs. Teens there run drugs or work in brothels—or, like Jin, hide under the radar. But when Dai offers Jin a chance to find her lost sister, Mei Yee, she begins a breathtaking race against the clock to escape the Walled City itself.
Why I'm Waiting...
Adventure!!!! Someone is probably going to die and there's mystery. Sign me up!!!!!
I'm also excited about some new world building and I'm always down for sisterly love.
I've always been looking out for a more mysterious type of dystopia book and this might be the one!
