A teen drowns himself and awakens alone in a desolate world, confronting past traumas and questions of existence in this disturbing YA novel.
Um garoto se afoga, desesperado e sozinho em seus momentos finais. E morre. Então ele acorda. Nu, ferido e com muita sede, mas vivo. Como pode ser? Que lugar é este, tão estranho e deserto? Enquanto se esforça para compreender a lógica de seu pior pesadelo, o garoto ousa ter esperança. Poderia isto não ser o fim? Poderia haver mais desta vida, ou quem sabe da outra vida? Do premiado autor Patrick Ness, o mais perturbador romance Young Adult do nosso tempo
