In a post-plague America, no living, breathing person can survive past the age of 20; an incurable disease called the Posies wipes them out. Sandra Newman's The County of Ice Cream Star is about the children who continue to survive against the odds, and of one brave female — 15-year-old Ice Cream Star — who refuses to accept her older brother's fate. She sets off on an epic quest to find the cure to the disease and save him.
