Blurb:
As one of the
last Untamed humans left in the world, Seven’s life has always been controlled
by tight rules. Stay away from the Enhanced. Don’t question your leader. And,
most importantly, never switch sides—because once you’re Enhanced there’s no
going back. Even if you have become the perfect human being.
But after a
disastrous raid on an Enhanced city, Seven soon finds herself in her enemy’s
power. Realizing it’s only a matter of time before she too develops a taste for
the chemical augmenters responsible for the erosion of humanity, Seven knows
she must act quickly if she’s to escape and save her family from the same fate.
Yet, as one of
the most powerful Seers that the Untamed and Enhanced have ever known, Seven
quickly discovers that she alone holds the key to the survival of only one
race. But things aren’t clear-cut anymore, and with Seven now questioning the
very beliefs she was raised on, she knows she has an important choice to make.
One that has two very different outcomes.
Seven must
choose wisely whose side she joins, for the War of Humanity is underway, and
Death never takes kindly to traitors.

Excerpt:
The cloth is heavy over
my face. Some light filters through it. I can see the flashing green and red
lights of the box high up on the ceiling. It's some sort of power-base, I'm
sure. Before they brought the cloth, I saw lots of metal components and wires
hanging from it, stretching to the corners of the room. My brother, Three,
would love to examine it.
The cloth over my face
gets tighter. It presses against my nose, trying to force it down. I can feel
their hands all over my body, pushing me onto the platform with cold fingers. I
know better now than to resist. But they don't believe me. They aren’t taking
chances, they say.
“Join us willingly.”
It's the same man. Always the same man who speaks. Raleigh. The one who called
me a fighter. The one who promised he'd break me.
Katya's
a lost cause. She went willingly.
“No,” I gasp. My word
tangles in the cloth. I blink and my lashes drag against the material.
“Very well.” He's
smiling. I know he is. His voice is always lighter and amused-sounding when
he's smiling. “Very well, indeed.”
The water slams against
me.
