"You have been sentenced to life in prison. Your ship will leave tomorrow for the island. Gather your things." When you've been decided a criminal, you're a criminal. There are no ifs, ands, or buts; whether you did the crime or not. Courts and juries are no longer used. If the authorities think you've done it, there's nothing anyone can do about your impending sentence. Being sent to the island is devastating, no matter how long you have to be there. No contact with the outside world, no way to reach your loved ones. It might be set up to appear more humane, more free than prisons of the past, but looks can be deceiving. On the way to the island, the huge prison ship begins to sink. There's no reason for it. Not from a storm, not from an iceberg. The ship just goes down. It's up to the remaining eleven survivors to discover why, and make sure they stay alive while doing so. * * * * * * * * * * Accomplishments: Featured! #37 in Sci-fi #1 in #BreakStereotypes * * * * * * * * * * * The gorgeous (and royalty free!) cover for this book was made by @CosmicGraphics Book started during #NaNoWriMo2016 and will be finished in 2017 Note: This book is published on WATTPAD ONLY!

This book is about ALIEN BEINGS. This book is not for those of you who are looking for third dimensional physical alien beings; it is not for those of you who are looking to read about abductions and UFO sightings. This book is for those of you who are spiritually minded, soulfully acquainted and inspired in mind. This book is for those of you who feel intrigued and curious about the Zeta an alien race, who are high dimensional beings, who are coming to Earth at this time to support their human ground crew. This book is for those of you who are not feeling comfortable in the human world, feeling that you do not belong that you are somehow different. It is for those of you who look upon the image of the Zeta and feel a familiarity, a connection, a soul alignment going on.
