BLURB
In
Earth’s battle-ridden future, humans have evolved. Those with extraordinary
skills rise to power and fame. Those without live in poverty.
Sixteen-year-old
Willow Kent believed she was normal. But when a genetically-advanced military
officer shows up in her village and questions her identity, long-buried secrets
begin to emerge. With remarkable skills and a shocking genetic code the Core
and its enemies will do anything to obtain, Willow suddenly finds the freedom
she craves slipping through her fingers. Greed, corruption, and genetic tampering
threaten every aspect of her existence as she’s thrust, unwilling, into the
sophisticated culture of the elite Core city. To ensure peace, she must leave
the past behind, marry a man she’s never met, and submit to the authority of a
relentless officer with a hidden agenda of his own.
Her
life has become a dangerous game. How much will she sacrifice in order to win?
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
C.L. Denault is a speculative fiction
writer who loves dreaming up tales of adventure and intrigue. A former systems
analyst, she gave up her nerdy code-writing skills to care for her family
(including a son with special needs), and currently lives among the vast
stretches of cornfields in Illinois.
Writing stories and posting on The INFJ
Café are her biggest passions, along with drinking coffee and watching sci-fi.
When she’s not hanging out with her husband and kids, she can usually be found
at a library or tucked away in the shadowy corner of a hip coffeehouse. She’s
also been glimpsed sneaking into her garage, late at night, to work on her time
machine.
Her debut novel, Gambit, is the
first in a Young Adult dystopian series.
