All around the world each city and small town is surrounded by thick, tall, shinny silver walls. The walls keep the "normal" people inside, and the beings that are thrown outside are forced to fend for themselves. No one cares about what happens outside the gates, but everyone understands that nothing less than pure mayhem takes place behind the locked gates.
In the city of Salem, Oregon, a small family of witches has been able to hide their identities from the government's tests and home visits. Ezra, the seventeen-year-old eldest daughter, has been curious about the outside ever since she was little. The government had always spoken about how dangerous it was with all the different types of creatures living beyond the cities walls, but she couldn't help the longing to see beyond the gates.
Little did she know how soon she would get the opportunity to see the outside, and how it would be nothing like she imagined.

This story is mine, so please don't try and claim my personally created dystopian world as your own. I created this world from pure imagination, the same goes for all of my characters.
If I see anyone trying to claim my story as their own I will report you.
Anyways, please enjoy this book! This isn't my first published novel but this is the first one I feel confident enough in to not delete. I would appreciate any feedback and constructive criticism from you guys, so don't hesitate to tell me your opinions.
