"All across the United States, people scramble to survive new, draconian policies that mark and track immigrants and their children (citizens or not) as their freedoms rapidly erode around them. For the "inked," those whose immigration status has been permanently tattooed on their wrists, those famous words on the Statue of Liberty are starting to ring hollow. The tattoos have marked them for horrors they could not have imagined within US borders. As the nightmare unfolds before them, unforeseen alliances between the inked, like Mari, Meche, and Toäno, and non-immigrants, Finn, Del, and Abbie, are formed, all in the desperate hope to confront it."--
