“Through all the eyes, I read one thing. I know what every single person is thinking. They’re thinking I’m a target. I used my one Free Kill. And now, I am vulnerable.”
In the Commonwealth, everyone gets One Free Kill, a government-sanctioned act of murder without consequence. Every kill is broadcast live on television, complete with live commentary from an enthusiastic host. Lucas Bennett is a cog within the large machine of the Commonwealth. Suddenly, he finds himself torn between what he has always been taught and a bold new world that calls his name.
With this gripping story, Ethan Jepsen provides illustrative insights on the world we now live. Between the desensitization in the media to the surveillance state, One Free Kill Society hits hauntingly close to home. Even our most charming leaders, have an agenda brewing, while keeping the people occupied, distracting away from the truth. This tale shows how quickly even a safe society can descend into... chaos.
