Book review – among the betrayed- Nina
Idi--a third child in a society where families are allowed only two
children--has been betrayed by the boy she loved, and arrested by the
Population Police for exposing other alleged third children. Angry and
confused, Nina knows only one thing for sure: She is innocent of the charges.
But now she is faced with the most difficult choice of her life: Get three

refuse to cooperate and be killed.
