Not even CM knows where X was born, and in her quest to find out, she opens a Pandoraâs box of secrets, betrayals, and destruction. All the while, she immerses herself in the history of the Southern Territory, a fascist theocracy that split from the rest of the country after World War II, and which finally, in the present day, is being forced into an uneasy reunification. 541 $d 20240516. 586 8 $a 2023 New York Times Notable Book Award. 941 $a 1 952 $l YAPC771 $d 20240613011022.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=45E456D4294A11EF9E0B20DD3CECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
