As The World Turns Cold

What would you risk for freedom?

Mercy Baudelaire has been locked up in a cell since her eleventh birthday when the government came to take her away from her family. The reason? To save their lives. Her childhood was spent on the run, escaping the hands reaching out to pull her into a world of deadly conspiracies and experiments. Her parents kept her hidden, constantly escaping watchful eyes. After years of running, time has caught up with Mercy leaving her trapped like a caged animal. For years she was tortured at the hands of a government too corrupt to care. Because of her gifts she fought so hard to conceal, freedom was nonexistent. Mercy lost all hope the day she had been taken.

As Mercy finds herself on the run once again, she encounters misfits with powers of their own; allies in a game of life she was sure to lose. Now, placing faith in freedom didn't sound too impossible to the hopeless young girl. But where faith exists, darkness often lies in wait. Mercy's enemies refuse to go down easily and not even time can save her now.
What happens when conspiracies are proven and super-humans fight to take back what is rightfully theirs?

In AS THE WORLD TURNS COLD, Mercy Baudelaire sets out on an adventure to prove to herself that in a broken world where the line between human and monster wears thin, a little faith and help from unexpected allies goes a long way.
