It is the year 2068 and the United States has fallen into ruins. Run by the dictated council of Demetri King, the people are left as prisoners- controlled and bound by threat and pain. The blood of war is fresh in the air and Demetri King is desperate for more- to rule the world. As the world above is dying by Demetri King's hands, the world below is just as bad. Underground, a secret organisation and experimentational ground is held. Prisoners from the world above are taken down and mutated to become the ultimate weapons of power and destruction.
Rose, the earliest and newest experimentation, was born in the underground cells along with her young sister, Anna. Ripped apart at a young age, Rose is left to fend for herself and keep a firm grip on who she is, what is right and what is wrong, as Demetri King moulds her into the mass weapon of war and death.

In a brutal attack from rampaging wildlife, everyone but Shawn and four other colonists are killed. The five survivors retreat to the cavernous network beneath the ground seeking safety, but they soon come to a terrible discovery. These caves aren't ordinary caves, and they are no safer down under than they were on the surface.

Superior
Delaney Escott lives in a world where popularity reigns supreme. If you want to be noticed, social status is everything. The government is run by the Superiors: a very exclusive group of individuals who are virtually flawless. They are smarter than us and stronger than us, and to join their ranks is the highest honor. The Superiors pay an annual visit to the top schools in the nation and evaluate the students, choosing one boy and one girl - the most Popular in the school - to go the Capitol and train for Superiority. Delaney thinks that she's the only one indifferent to (and perhaps even suspicious of) the Superiors, until Caleb Payne, the most popular boy in school, approaches her with a request. He has a task for her, one that he believes she is uniquely capable of completing. And as she helps him, Delaney discovers that the government is hiding many secrets - and that the truth of the Superiors is far from what people believe it to be.
