The country that America used to be is no more. The government is in shambles. The survivors have taken off to a nearby country to save themselves, and the rest of the adults have been killed in the recent genocide. The President is dead. Now, all that is left are the orphaned children in this havoc-wrecked country that was called the "land of the free." Macy Crow is one of those children. Macy, a 17-year-old Virginian, has recently lost her parents due to the freak plague that is sweeping across the nation and killing billions of adults. She is now left with only her nine-year-old little sister Rosie as her family. Thrown into this new and terrifying way of life, she sees every person as a threat and every threat with one answer: kill or be killed. The children of the country have gone rogue with no one to control them, and riots and gangs have started popping up nation-wide. It's now become a game of 'every man for themselves' without a real enemy. What started out with her parents' deaths could very well end with her own. Macy has started to question whether she can keep her and her sister alive to see each new day, because each new day brings another surprise, good or bad. And today, it happens to be a boy pointing a gun at her head.

(The Forgotten Passages Series Book Three) After twenty years, I was used to life - used to playing a part, used to knowing my life was in danger with every step I took, used to the fact that I had people out to kill me...and Vince Peters thought he did. It's been a year - a year since the Order attacked us in the tunnels under the ruins of Seward House, a year since I'd been on the edge of dying, a year since I somehow found it in myself pull myself from what would have been my watery grave and get to Scotland and the one family I knew would help me and keep my secrets. To everyone I loved, I was missing and more than likely dead...that is, until the one girl who disappeared herself showed up. When Vince Peters thinks you're dead, it's easy to travel around the world undetected. Now, after months of being hidden away and taking on a new identity, Kenna and Cruz convinced me to begin the search for the third and final key. This time, however, it was in the clutches of the one man who took everything and almost everyone away from me. Somehow, we would get it back and find whatever the three keys opened. And expose every secret Vince Peters kept, tearing down his world around him.
