Controlled by the mechanisms of her father, Malcolm Carlyle, she has inched ever closer to the truth not only of herself, but of the world the Families have made--a world where very few hold dominion over everything and everyone. In the unending hunger for more, the Families have waged war the last several years. Amidst this carnage, Forever has discovered truths not just about herself but about her 14 year-old (3z(Bsister, (3y(B Eight, the clone being groomed to eventually replace her. Now, in alliance with her sister Johanna, the acting Head of the Carlyle Family, Forever has a plan. If it works, the war will end, Carlyle will triumph, and most importantly, Forever and Eight will obtain what they have been denied--they will move from slavery to freedom. But every family has its secrets, and every secret has its cost. Her father has a plan, too, one that involves his eternal rival, Jakob Hock. Truth, like freedom, will be paid for in blood.
