Evalene's Number
Page 32
Smuggled out of the country during a failed rebellion ten years ago, Pearl’s existence shakes Evalene’s whole reality. There’s only one thing she can do: find her.
Travelling to the Divided States from one territory to the next, Evalene hunts down a cold trail. But she never expects such an advanced nation to be so uncivilized. Between liars sending her in the wrong direction and hostile citizens, Evalene fears she’ll never locate her mother.
And secretly, she’s terrified Pearl may not want to be found...

Acknowledgments
I’M THANKFUL GOD GAVE me the idea for this story, as well as the opportunity to write and publish it. Equally thankful that He blessed me with my sweet husband who has supported my dream, frequently tells me not to give up, and endures having ideas bounced off him regularly. And speaking of bouncing ideas off people, I am beyond grateful for my beta reading group who read the entire book before it was anywhere near the final product: Alissa Jones, Allisa White, Amy M. Olson, Brenda Patik, Carolyn, Danielle Gibson, Jennifer Dehn, Katherine Ley, Kris Cox, Lia Anderson, Mackenzie Claypool, M. L. Everidge, Meghan Morrison, Mike Batty, and Valerie Wheeler. Each one of you impacted this story in a unique, helpful way - thank you! Also, I want to give a huge shout out to everyone who supported me via the Kickstarter that launched this book into reality. Thanks to all of you, this book is now out in the real world instead of just an enormous word document on my computer. THANK YOU a million times, you are amazing! And finally, to YOU, my reader: I appreciate you more than you know and sincerely hope you’ve enjoyed this story. I can’t wait to entertain you with many more in the future!
“Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? Yet not one of them is forgotten by God. Indeed, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Don’t be afraid, you are worth more than many sparrows.”
-Luke 12:6-7
