Twenty-five years ago the Vardeshi came to Earth. Then they vanished without a trace. Graduate student Avery Alcott always knew they would return. When they do, she's the only one who can speak their language. She's quickly recruited to join the crew of an 11-man starship on a one-year mission into the depths of space. Avery leaps at the chance to leave behind everything she's ever known. Wearing a Vardeshi uniform, adapting to their culture, following their orders, she's as close to being one of them as she'll ever be. But there's more to interstellar diplomacy than knowing the right words to say. And shedding her identity turns out to be harder than she expected. When her ship, its crew, and the fragile human-Vardeshi alliance are threatened, Avery's humanity-the very thing putting her at risk-just might be the one thing that can save her.

The Earth used to be lavish and green until nuclear radiation started to eat away at it. In fear and panic, people escaped into ships in space to keep them safe. Little did they know life up there was just as hard. Cruelty, little freedom, and overpopulation was everyday life on In Tutum. Nylie Drune is a degenerate; she steals food and medicine and gives it around freely. She has never been caught - until now. After being arrested, she was on her way to be executed when her Chancellor announced all prisoners were to go to the Earth and see if it was survivable. Now on a new journey filled with hope and fear, will Nylie be able to survive the world? She survived living on In Tutum so it couldn't be any harder...could it? Author: thanks so much for even thinking of reading this book!!! This is loosely based on the TV show "The 100" but it's not exact. Bellamy, Octavia, and Clarke do exist but they're not heavily involved. I do not own any of the material from The 100 but I do own my character and the story plot! Also! The cover was done by @RoseyRoses101 so hit her up if you're interested! She was amazing, friendly, and I will definitely use her as my main cover artist.

In August 2014, archaeologists Prof. Naszda Rovia and one of her assistants went missing while leading a team analyzing an ancient tomb in Caucasus. The team found her tent destroyed, with reports of the analysis, along with parts of her journal, lost as well. There were signs of resistance all over the place, but no one in the team were aware something happened the night before. The team must now focus on two things - finishing the analysis and finding Dr. Rovia and her assistant's whereabouts. Could the remaining parts of the journal, together with what the team found along the way, lead us to the truth?
