Bailey Carr gently narrates this dystopian audiobook. The corrupt U.S. Department of Balance carries out a form of law enforcement that endows people who commit crimes with extra shadows that warn people they encounter of their past transgressions. Kris is one such person, and so is her newborn daughter, whose birth mother, Kris's wife, died in childbirth. Kris feels unprepared to be a widowed parent facing a world full of prejudice. Carr voices Kris's grief with realism and depth, and expresses her pride in her daughter as she grows. Carr's voice for Kris's daughter is adorably youthful and strong; she never lets a cruel world dampen her spirit. Caught between grieving and trying to find joy despite a government that is watching their every move, these characters will resonate with listeners.
