Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The water is clean now. That's the problem.For eleven years, Wren Voss believed her father's disappearance was an unsolvable mystery. She believed the mental fog suffocating the lower district was just a grim fact of life.She was wrong.After breaking the chemical compound in the water supply and broadcasting the truth to four million bracelets, Wren gave the district its mind back. But clarity comes with a devastating price: the people can finally feel exactly how starving they are.The clean water wasn't a victory-it was a trap. Decades ago, a nameless, faceless architect known only as EXEC-NODE-00 built a scheduled famine into the city's infrastructure. Now, with the district on the brink of starvation, Wren must hunt down a phantom who has spent thirty years erasing their own existence.Backed by a compliance officer who burned his career to stand beside her, a smuggler with nothing left to sell, and a forensic tech no one has ever believed, Wren is running out of time. Her own body is keeping a dangerous, unreadable ledger, and a devastating flood is coming-one that will demand more than she has left to give.Flood and Famine is the propulsive second installment in the Ruined Horizon series. Perfect for fans of The Water Knife and Silo, it's a sealed-world thriller where the scarcest resource was never water or food. It was always the truth.What to expect: - Sealed-city dystopian thriller with climate-collapse stakes- A slow-burn central relationship- Dual POVs, including the cold, unhurried logic of the antagonist- Note: This is Book Two in an ongoing series. For the best experience, start with Soil and Ruin.I punched up the pacing by breaking up the longer paragraphs to make it highly scannable for online storefronts, and I heightened the stakes surrounding EXEC-NODE-00 to make the conspiracy feel more immediate.
