According to my contacts in the CIA, things are about to get bad, the U.S. government is on red alert, preparing for an attack of some kind. Most think it is terrorists, planning an attack similar to 9/11, others think it’s that political group, the Reformation, which has been quickly gaining members and planning to overthrow the election at the end of the year.
But I have the unsettling feeling that it has something to do with Crane, he’s planning something from within the safety of his freshly built walls, in his new utopia, the Phoenix District.
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
Many thanks to my editor, my reviewer, my beta reader, my graphic designer, the one who I bounce ideas off of, my husband, the father of my daughter, the one who thinks he is Ian (when in fact he is Ian and Adam collective), the one who turns a blind eye to my poor housecleaning skills, who puts up with my craziness, the one who has supported me every step of the way, and who sometimes cleans the snow off my car. Jorden. I love you, babe.
There is no way I would have ever found the courage to complete this book, and continue on with more, if it weren’t for a few more great people: Lihini, the best friend a girl could have and supreme expert in grammar, spelling and living life to its fullest. And Heather and Lauren, your encouragement has meant the world to me.
