Among the betrayed

Summary: In a society that allows no more than two children per family under penalty of death, third children are forced into hiding, or to live with false identity papers. Nina Idi was arrested for treason for supposedly trying to trick the Population Police into arresting other students she said were illegal third children. Now she faces torture or death -- unless she agrees to betray three other imprisoned third children. Her dilemma intensifies when she meets the prisoners -- who are only ten, nine, and six.
