Turning sixteen is a scary thing in this perfect society. On the day of her sixteenth birthday, Beatrice Prior must choose one of five predetermined factions. Each faction lives its life based on the one human characteristic they value the most. Those in Candor are the honest, people in Amity are the peaceful, Abnegation folk are the selfless, Dauntless citizens are the brave, and those in Erudite are the intelligent.
Her choice will define her identity for life.

Will she stay an Abnegation, living a totally selfless life like her family? Or will she become a Dauntless, a gun-toting tattooed unrestrained adventurer? She knows she has strengths from more than one faction. That means she is a Divergent.
There's just one problem.
In this “perfect” society, the controlling leaders do not allow Divergents to live!
