Publisher Description

In this engrossing, lightning-paced story with a post-apocalyptic edge, best-selling author Sigmund Brouwer weaves a heroic, harrowing journey through the path of a treacherous nation carved from the United States. In the rough, shadowy hills of Appalachia, in what is left of the United States following years of government infighting, Caitlyn Brown and her companions are prey in a terrifying hunt. They must outwit relentless bounty hunters, skirt an oppressive, ever-watchful society, and find passage over the walls of Appalachia to reveal the dark secrets behind Caitlyn’s existence. Her birth was shrouded in mystery and tragedy. Her destiny is beyond comprehension. Her pursuers long to see her broken. But she fights to soar.

"Not bad.... pretty good characters. Post-apocalyptic thriller. Interesting story about a young girl and the story that comes from a parting of her and her father. It was hard to put down and I would be interested in reading the next book."

    " This could have been a better book. It was a good suspense/scifi story with the necessary ingredients of genetic manipulation, characters on the run, and a sadist bounty hunter. Unfortunately, I think the author could have developed all parts of the story a little better. The characters were bland, and even unlikable. There was very little descriptive text and only a few moments of thought-provoking dialogue. Set in a religious-right country within the US, Brouwer had the chance to take a serious look at scientific integrity and religion. He chose to take the easy way out, creating a readable, but very average "chase" book. If you want an easy read-in-a-day book, pick it up. Just don't expect more than this book can deliver. "

    " DNF -- Picked up the sequel, Flight of Shadows (review), and launched into it before I started reading this novel, and then found the plot of this lacking any appeal. "

    " Won this book through First Reads. :) At first I didn't think I would like this book. Kind of futuristic. It ended up drawing me in. Left some unfinished questions for me but that's ok. Leaves something to think about. "

    " Interesting book. "Appalachia" was a scarey place run by a religious cult. The girls escape was very interesting but the end was predictable. Over all I enjoyed the book. "

    " A fun little story, although it felt a bit light-weight. I enjoyed it, however; it's a thriller set in a totalitarian Appalachia that resists the science fictional "Outside" except where technology that allows population control is concerned. "
