The Scourge

The main character Ani Mells is shocked when she is unexpectedly captured by the warden and to submit a test for the Scourage. When she gets her test back she is surprised to find positive results, from there she is sent to Attic Island, a colony for ill people. The victims of the illness are expected to live short painful lives until Ani and her friend Weevil discover the truth of the Scourage.

She and her now best friend come up with a devious plot to discover what is acutally going on in the colony. I was interested in this book because first it was written by one of my favorite authors named Jennifer A. Neilson. She also wrote one of my favorite trilogies called the Ascendant Trilogy and that's why I read it.
