Synopsis
An action-packed, blood-soaked, futuristic thriller by Lindsay Cummings, co-author (with Sasha Alsberg) of the New York Times #1 Bestseller Zenith. This is the dark and compelling sequel to The Murder Complex, which Booklist praised as “carefully crafted . . . chilling,” and which Justine Magazine called “a must-read for fans of action-packed dystopians like The Hunger Games and Divergent.”
With short, fast-paced, alternating-point-of-view chapters, The Death Code starts several weeks after The Murder Complex ended. Zephyr keeps the secret about Meadow close—that if she dies, The Murder Complex will be destroyed, too. Meadow, desperate to find her brother, father, and little sister, is determined to fight fearlessly to the end, even if it means sacrificing herself and her friends, new and old. The Death Code introduces a memorable cast of secondary characters and delivers a vivid and scary thrill-ride read.

Reviews
Gr 9 Up— This chilling sequel begins only weeks after its predecessor The Murder Complex (HarperCollins, 2014) ended, providing alternating perspectives of its complex characters. Zephyr is struggling with the knowledge that Meadow holds the key to the Murder Complex's end, while Meadow will stop at nothing to rescue what's left of her family. Cummings has crafted an action-packed thriller that will appeal to fans of Suzanne Collins's The Hunger Games and Veronica Roth's Divergent.
