Jules Yogore | 4 comments I read the synopsis and the preview for this book within the past year. It features the POV of multiple characters and is set in space. One girl is a prisoner on a planet. None of the prisoners really want to escape the prison because it's hard to live off the land outside of the prison, and the people that live outside the prison are ruthless. She escapes to outside of the prison because she was framed for the murder of another inmate, but the outsiders attack the prison so she has to return to the prison. She steals a spaceship from one of the prison guards, who happens to be the daughter of the warden.

Thanks so much for the help!

Jules Yogore | 4 comments I remembered some more information!

The daughter of the warden is another character whose POV is in the book. She was having relationship trouble.

Also, there was another character, a guy who'd been living outside of the prison. He didn't take part in the attack on the prison but he did save the girl who was trying to escape the prison.

Jules, about how old is the heroine?

Is she in jail for the attempted murder or something else? How long has she been imprisoned?

Any romance?

Jules Yogore | 4 comments Hi! I think she's around 17-18, and she's in jail for killing her father. She's only been imprisoned for a couple of years. I think one of the other characters mentioned that they'd been in high school together when she'd been arrested. I didn't get to read the whole book, just an excerpt. The only romance mentioned at the beginning is of the relationship between the daughter of the warden, who wants to break up with her boyfriend, but I think there is romance later on.

Thanks so much for your response!

Did she actually kill her father, and then was framed for killing a prison inmate (female or male?)?

Jules Yogore | 4 comments Yeah, she killed her father and was framed for killing a female inmate, I believe.

Was the prison ship hovering over a planet?
