Summary

Summary

From the New York Times bestselling author of The Chemical Garden trilogy: On the floating city of Internment, you can be anything you dream-- unless you approach the edge. Morgan Stockhour knows getting too close to the edge of Internment, the floating city in the clouds where she lives, can lead to madness. Even though her older brother, Lex, was a Jumper, Morgan vows never to end up like him. If she ever wonders about the ground, and why it is forbidden, she takes solace in her best friend, Pen, and in Basil, the boy she's engaged to marry. Then a murder, the first in a generation, rocks the city. With whispers swirling and fear on the wind, Morgan can no longer stop herself from investigating, especially once she meets Judas. Betrothed to the victim, he is the boy being blamed for the murder, but Morgan is convinced of his innocence. Secrets lay at the heart of Internment, but nothing can prepare Morgan for what she will find-- or whom she will lose.

“DeStefano’s Perfect Ruin is an exquisite masterpiece. With its story of free will, love, and the power of dreaming beyond one’s boundaries, it’s as every bit captivating as it is courageous. While the world-building is unique and strong, the characters are even more so, every one of them believable and relatable…Intelligently written and thought provoking, Perfect Ruin is the start of yet another astounding series from DeStefano.” RT Book Reviews (4½ stars)
“DeStefano has created a perfect storm—intertwining plot, characters, and setting beautifully. From the first page, readers will be enticed by Morgan’s voice, precise in its descriptions yet filled with curiosity…This is a page-turner, and waiting for the next book will be hard, hard, hard.” Booklist (starred review)
