The Greed Gene (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798270568467)

In the near future, there are only two classes left: the starving poor and the untouchable, ultra-rich.

The power grid goes down, the supply chain breaks. The rich isolate themselves from the poor, walling off their luxurious private Estate communities, while the poor are left to wither in the polluted wilderness.

In the rich Estates, every life is meticulously, beautifully planned from embryo. Twenty-year-old Elysian, daughter of the powerful Estate leader, has been trained to inherit his position, believing their flawless world is saving and advancing humanity.

But perfection has a price.

When a poor but charismatic outsider named Naxo infiltrates the Estates to expose the terrifying truth - that the elite secretly use their power to torture and control the poor outsiders for entertainment - Elysian is pulled into a deadly game of manipulation and betrayal.

The line is drawn. Elysian must choose between upholding the glorious lie of her perfect society, or finding a way to seize control of the Estates to change its trajectory. Her final, terrifying discovery? Power is a poison, but she craves the taste.
