If you are a troubled child between the ages of 10-20 then your parents can send you to "The Box". "The Box" uses any/every means necessary to mold you into a perfect, mindless, law following, zombie. When Athena and Peter are shipped away to be schooled they uncover some very deep, corrupt, secrets that run deep in the government. They want to uncover them all, but how can they start a rebellion within the government without anyone noticing? And who can they trust?



Warning! Some younger audiences may be uncomfortable/ unsuitable for reading this. 
I am writing this for 14+ 

Self-harm, violence, killing, blood, cuts, starvation, death, beating, whipping, drugs, and depression is referenced.
Swearing is glossed over/ light swearing, periods are talked about, mature themes are hinted at and the main character is almost assaulted. 

The mature themes will probably go over most younger people's heads.All Rights Reserved
