Thirty years after the collapse of civilisation, a totalitarian survivor society lives on beneath a protective dome. Sixteen-year-old Claudia is curious about the decadent old world and why it destroyed itself, but there's only one version of history-the Ideology-and it can't be questioned. Her closest friend, Pierce, is recruited into the Mentargh, the ruthless organisation that controls the Dome. When free spirit Davina turns up to a party held to celebrate his promotion and provokes him, the fun turns dangerous. As a good junior citizen, Claudia should know better, but curiosity proves stronger than duty. Loyalties are tested, and she and her friends are drawn into a struggle over the future of the Dome. When another celebration turns violent, Claudia is forced to make a choice that will change everything. A YA/adult crossover dystopian novel about individuals and relationships under a totalitarian survivalist regime, The Inheritors is for readers of cerebral speculative fiction such as Julia, Station Eleven, and The Handmaid's Tale.16+ Mature content
