A country driven into chaos and two young girls are stuck running for their lives. Addylin and Gwen Rouse are plunged into chaos as the government commits The Cleansing. They're forced to leave their mother behind as they go on a run for their lives. Their father was taken a few months before for something that seems so innocent to many but is deemed poison to the government, religion. Addylin is trusted with taking care of her younger sister and protecting her when she barely knows how to do that for herself. But their lives were changed and maybe even saved when they spot a boy in the woods.

Karsten Green is a normal boy who grew up in a town where religion is believed to be evil, but he never believed it. He thinks what the government is doing is awful, though he is too scared to stand up for what is right because he fears for his life if he does. His life is changed though when one day he meets two girls who are fighting for their lives. He takes the chance to help stand up for what he believes in by helping these two girls. Meet Karsten Green, a man who lives two different lives, a kind-hearted hero to Addylin and Gwen then a careless drunk farmer to everyone else.

These three will face many problems along their journey throughout life. Will they be safe together and live a happy life or will they be torn apart and fight once again? Find out in The Remaining.

Knife's Edge

51 parts Ongoing

With a drug lord for a father and an addict for a mother, Jade Taylor was dealt a pretty shabby hand in life. Her childhood was spent in a constant state of fear, her only solace being her two half-sisters -- Charlotte and Bailey -- who were forced to live the nightmare alongside her. But things all changed when their father got sent to prison. Eight new social workers and five foster families later, the girls finally found their home. Now, at eighteen, Jade is counting down the days until her exams are over, excited to spend a stress-free summer with her boyfriend, her two best friends, and her forever family. Unfortunately, things don't always go to plan -- not in a town like Greencliff. Upon meeting the Coleman brothers -- a family that fits so well into the 'gang' culture she so desperately wants to avoid -- Jade finds herself teetering on the edge of a blade, carefully balanced between the life she wants and the life she wants to escape. And when she catches the eye of Lucas Coleman, the eldest of the brothers, it's only a matter of time before she falls. Only one question remains: Which way will she land?
