What is Unwind about?

In a future America, parents can choose to have troublesome or unwanted teenagers unwound: their bodies are taken apart and transplanted, while the law insists they are still alive. Connor is marked for unwinding by his angry parents, Risa is sacrificed to save her orphanage money, and Lev has been raised to accept his fate. When the three escape together, they begin a dangerous journey across the country, hunted by authorities and forced to question what it truly means to be human.
