Boneyard

Boys don't cry. 

Lazlo lives by his wits on the mean streets of First City. Stolen from his mother when he was twelve and used as a lab rat, he'll do whatever it takes to return home. 

Slinging dust is a crime, but it pays the bills. 

During a police raid, Lazlo is caught holding the bag. Just like that, he's sentenced to ten years in prison—a quarter of an outsider's lifespan. When the warden offers him a chance to halve his sentence by working the Line, Lazlo believes his luck is changing. Too bad he doesn't know what he's agreed to. 

Body breaking labor in a harsh desert. Electrocution. Severed limbs. But there are worse things that can kill a human. The Line is all that stands between civilization and the monsters on the other side. 

And Lazlo's got a target on his back.  

If he ever wants to see home again, he'll need to escape prison and cross the Line. He must face his fear of what lives in the forest. But can he face himself?  

Boneyard is a dystopian thriller perfect for fans of The 100, Maze Runner, and The Hunger Games.
