With shades of Scott Westerfeld's Uglies and Ally Condie's Matched, this cinematic dystopian novel --the first in the thrilling Eye of the Beholder series--is set in a near future society in which "right" and "wrong" are manifested by beauty and ugliness.
In Grace Luther's world, morality is physically enforced. Those who are "good" are blessed with beauty, while those who are not suffer horrifying consequences--disfigurement or even death. The daughter of a cleric, Grace has always had faith in the higher power that governs her world. But when she stumbles onto information that leaves her questioning whether there are more complicated--and dangerous--forces manipulating the people around her, she finds herself at the center of an epic battle, where good and evil are not easily distinguished. Despite all her efforts to live a normal teenage life, Grace is faced with a series of decisions that will risk the lives of everyone...
