Claire is a twelve year old girl who wants nothing more but be a pilot and explore her home country of Deltiri and maybe even their galaxy. However, it is discovered that her parents have ties to the Underground movement, the once peaceful movement is now full of radicals that wish to eradicate the government that actually has a good system but the wrong person in charge. Claire escapes with her eight year old little brother Evan and reluctantly joins her father's friend General Eric and Underground movement.
As the daughter of a government official, Claire has been taught to follow orders, but once she is a member of the Underground movement, she's forced to become a spy, despite her wish to be a pilot. The missions she goes on have her witness the rebels stealing, lying and even killing in the name of the Underground. Her beliefs don't match those of the rebellion, but she can't work for the government either due to her parents' actions. After four years of living with the movement, Claire sees that there seems to be only one way to get out of the rebellion- to die in a war.

Exile: The Book of Ever
Centuries after the Fall, the United States has been wiped away. The crumbling remains of the great American empire are home now only to savage, lawless tribes and packs of ravening Damned-the twisted children of the apocalypse. Most of those few who survived humanity's destruction spend their short lives in a violent struggle for survival. But some light still flickers in the darkness: the Blessed of Bountiful live in seclusion, relying on walls both physical and spiritual to protect them from the Desolation that their world has become. Among them are the Saints, those few men and women born with superhuman abilities that the Blessed see as gifts from God. The violent apostate tribes of the Northeast Kingdom have always been a danger, but up until recently its small size and the vigilance of its people have made Bountiful an unappealing target. As attacks on the community grow harsher and more frequent, however, even the steadfast Blessed are forced to start preparing for the worst. With her home's very existence threatened, seventeen year old Ever Oaks, a Saint with the power to heal, is forced to make a difficult choice, one that may come to define her people's future...

In a world stripped of color, Eli is an enigma. A member of a burgeoning underground rebellion, he hides a powerful secret - a genetic mutation that makes him immune to emotion suppressants. Eli has known the pain and pleasure of feelings all his life. Now, he becomes Cora's compass in her chaotic new reality, guiding her through the wild storm of emotions and introducing her to a hidden world fighting for emotional freedom. Cora and Eli are drawn together by a bond neither can explain, a shared emotional journey that stands in quiet defiance against The Regimen's frigid rule.
