Among the Betrayed

 

Among the Betrayed is the third book in the Shadow Children series. It is not about Luke but about a girl who is arrested for betraying her country, Nina, and she has no clue what the Population Police are talking about when they interrogate her. 


Nina does not understand what is going on, one moment she is enjoying her oatmeal at the girl's school and the next she is being arrested. Terrified, in pain, hungry, and unsure who to trust Nina decides not to do anything and remain as a neutral as possible. That seems to work until the Population Police decide to use to her to try to get three children to confess to being illegal third children.


Since Among the Betrayed is a middle school book it is an easy read. The writing it not complex but it is well done. It was nice to see another point of view set in this world but I do enjoy things from Luke's point of view more. I do plan on reading Among the Barons.
