The Department

Megan, seventeen years old and a strong personality. She is too strong to submit to the rules set by the Department that, for past one hundred years, since the big war of 2019, has maintained a forced peace. Ten Detachments, each one specialized in a certain activity, with a set of laws that leave no room for personal choices or even to feelings that could undermine this false sense of serenity. Megan doesn’t want to accept it, she wants to be able to choose even if it jeopardizes her future, and she makes her decision. Friendship, love, betrayal and passion become entwined in this novel about freedom and the exhausting struggle to regain it. Having a choice, a real choice, makes us all better. Following in the footsteps of bestsellers such as “Divergent” and “The Hunger Games”, this novel will transport you into a world where nothing is as it looks and where the future of the characters is entirely in their hands.
