Query: Gripping Sci-Fi Novel

Nocturne reminded me of Lord of the Flies in that it's a bit of a social commentary of what might happen if we were stripped of all familiarities and forced to survive as best we could. As with Flies, the result isn't very attractive. Nocturne takes place on a new planet, colonized years ago by Earth. Family structures are no longer, and people's surnames are indicative of the school they attended. Each section of Nocturne has a governmental structure which is ultimately overseen by a higher council. Again, to me, it drew similarities to Lord of the Flies, except there are regions rather than individuals-- though the individuals certainly have their own agendas as well.The critical conflict occurs when there is an explosion that destroys a vital food storage bin. Was the explosion an accident or an act of deliberate cruelty and manipulation? You'll have to see for yourself in this gripping sci-fi novel.
