Dead Man Walking by Sienna Leaver
Death has been conquered. Dresno Tech, the world’s largest tech company, has done the impossible: They can predict exactly when you’re going to die. Their technology — the Death Date — gives you a three day alert. It’s just enough time to say your goodbyes and finish any unfinished business…
Will Raisan does not think three days is enough time. When he receives the alert, he panics. He’s only eighteen. His life has just begun. Still, he has no choice but to accept it. When the dreaded three days are up… nothing happens. His Death Date is wrong. The dates are never wrong. His miraculous case catches the attention of Dresno Tech CEO herself. He’s a glitch in their system. That makes him a weakness, a mistake. In response, they offer Will a colossal sum of hush money if he agrees to go with them and answer a few questions. How can he say no?
But as soon as he arrives, Will can tell something is wrong. The other people there — the other glitches — are treated as prisoners, while he’s treated as an esteemed guest. And when he meets a girl named Nine, he knows something is wrong. She drops him clues that have him digging around in the past of Dresno Tech. The more he learns, the more he knows he has to escape — before he loses everything on a gamble that could kill everyone.
