Slated teens can only have the Levo removed when they turn twenty-one.Īfter being Slated, teens are kept in the hospital for six months where they are re-educated before being released to live with a brand new family. Any attempts to remove the Levo result in death. When mood levels are either extremely low or high, the wearer receives a zap that causes them to black out or have seizures.
The Levo interacts with a chip implanted in the Slated teen's brain, detecting their mood. Like every Slated person, Kyla is forced to wear a Levo device on her wrist. Sixteen-year-old Kyla has been "Slated" - that is, her memory wiped clean. When the ability to erase memories was discovered, the two groups merged, resulting in a country ruled by the Lorders. The Coalition is the product of the merging of two sides the Law and Order movement which became the Lorders and the Freedom UK which wanted to rehabilitate young criminals.
The Coalition government came into power after a devastating economic collapse in the 2020s and demonstrations and terrorist acts committed by students. Slated is set in 2054, in London which is ruled by the Central Coalition. The prequel to the trilogy, Fated, was released in 2019. It's the first book of the Slated Trilogy (Slated, Fractured, Shattered). Fractured Slated is a young adult thriller by Teri Terry.
