Fourteen year old Jaymee Stokes was selected. Being selected was a great honour. Best education. Best training. Highest honour and most wanted by the government.

All that propaganda was forced upon the children throughout their primary education. Jaymee heard it all and when she was selected she was not prepared. The government only chose the smartest and most athletic to train.

When she arrives at an unknown base she is unprepared. She must train to kill without any emotions and not care for others. Her old life was over, declared dead to her family, and her new one begins. While training she befriends other first year selectees and some staff. 

Danger strikes the base trying to kill all who work there to end this horrible program of making young assassins and government spies. Jaymee no longer can hide who she supports and helps defend the base. Will she accept who she is becoming or will she continue to resist?
