Produktbeschreibung
High school senior, Ian, intends to become a star reporter. Until one word, one symbol, changes his life forever. In this alternate 1961, Ian bicycles home from his job at the paper, wishing he had a car and worrying that his secret water tower protest isn't secret anymore. Then he sees the symbol burned into the family's front door. He can't believe it. Doesn't want to believe it. The Angels of Death Took his parents and older brother. And government agents pursue him and the surviving members of his family. Ian and his three younger siblings escape into the wilds of the Blue Ridge Mountains. They rely on his evasion and survival skills. Life in the mountains is brutal and unforgiving. Resources are limited. Food is scarce. And winter is coming. They won't survive without help. With no one he can trust, Ian turns to his best friend. And puts all their lives on the line.
Autorenporträt
Lynette M. Burrows is a survivor. She survived moving to seventeen different schools before she graduated from high school. She claims that this makes her uniquely qualified to write a dystopian novel or three. Lynette enjoys coffee, the pleasure of real books, and the crack of a nine-millimeter, not necessarily all at the same time-although they all appear in her stories. She writes stories of empowerment and survival spanning space and time. Spiced with a dash of intrigue, a dollop of mayhem, and a liberal dose of automatic weapons, her stories aim to entertain. The White Box stories, her collaborations with Rob Chilson, appeared in Analog Science Fiction/Science Fact Magazine. She's also had stories published in regional and national children's magazines. Her series, The Fellowship Dystopia, takes place in America, but it's not the nation you know. Readers have said that the first book in the series, My Soul to Keep, has the social significance of The Handmaid's Tale and the suspense and action will keep you turning pages. She blogs regularly about inspiration, books, story research, writing, and other subjects of interest. She loves to talk to people.
