We’re thrilled to host a stop on the blog tour for the release of The Murder Complex, a brand new YA dystopian speculative fiction novel by author Lindsay Cummings – and to give away a copy of the book!
Here’s a little more about the book and the author.
About the Book:
An action-packed, blood-soaked, futuristic debut thriller set in a world where the murder rate is higher than the birthrate. For fans of Moira Young’s Dust Lands series, La Femme Nikita, and the movie Hanna.
Meadow Woodson, a fifteen-year-old girl who has been trained by her father to fight, to kill, and to survive in any situation, lives with her family on a houseboat in Florida. The state is controlled by The Murder Complex, an organization that tracks the population with precision.
The plot starts to thicken when Meadow meets Zephyr James, who is—although he doesn’t know it—one of the MC’s programmed assassins. Is their meeting a coincidence? Destiny? Or part of a terrifying strategy? And will Zephyr keep Meadow from discovering the haunting truth about her family?
Action-packed, blood-soaked, and chilling, this is a dark and compelling debut novel by Lindsay Cummings.
About the Author:
Lindsay Cummings is the 20-year-old author of THE MURDER COMPLEX, as well as its sequel, coming 2014 from Greenwillow Books/HarperCollins, and the MG trilogy THE BALANCE KEEPERS, coming Fall 2014 from Katherine Tegen Books/HarperCollins.
Lindsay deals with chronic fatigue, can’t get enough of her two pesky German Shepherds, wolf cub, and two horses. She’s still waiting on her letter from Hogwarts–it was probably just lost in the mail.

June 11, 2014 at 2:45 pmHands down, it has to be The Giver. It was my first introduction to dystopian fiction (at age 11), and it has remained as one of my favorite books of all time.

June 12, 2014 at 10:14 pmI just went to a book signing by Lindsay Cummings on Tuesday, and I’ve already finished the book. It definitely held its own against the other dystopian books. My favorite, though, would have to be Ender’s Game.
