New York Occasions bestseller * 6 starred reviews

At once provocative, terrifying, and darkly subversive, Dread Country is Justina Ireland’s stunning vision of the America both foreign and familiar-a nation within the brink, in the explosive crossroads where race, humanity, and success meet.

Jane McKeene was created two days prior to the dead begun to walk the battlefields of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania-derailing the Battle Between the Claims and changing the country forever.

With this new America, safety for any about Dread Country depends on the task of the few, and laws and regulations like the Local and Negro Education Act require certain children attend combat schools to understand to place down the dead.

But there are also opportunities-and Jane is studying to become an Attendant, been trained in both weaponry and etiquette to protect the well-to-do. It’s a opportunity for a better life for Negro young ladies like Jane. In the end, not even becoming the daughter of a wealthy white Southern girl could conserve her from society’s goals.

But that’s not a existence Jane wants. Almost finished with her education at Miss Preston’s School of Combat in Baltimore, Jane is set on time for her Kentucky home and doesn’t pay much mind towards the politics from the eastern metropolitan areas, using their talk of coming back America towards the glory of its days before the deceased rose.

But when family members around Baltimore Region start to move missing, Jane is caught in the center of a conspiracy, one that finds her in a desperate combat for her lifestyle against some powerful opponents.

And the restless dead, it could seem, are the least of her problems.
