For Raegan life has never been easy. With her mother disappearing, the cold stares from strangers and relatives all alike--all from one code etched into her wrist--the secrets that she knows are being kept from her. After finding out she would transform into a mutant that would run mankind to extinction, she could only sum her life up as,
"A second of paradise, a year of hell."
When Raegan Taylor was born there was a 33.78% chance of her becoming the monster that the country of America feared so greatly. It was always an unlikely chance for her to take that turn, but when DNA is tested and the results come out positive, the only thing to do is run and escape the government's grasp.
But then the unexpected offer comes. "You find a cure, you stay alive." With this quote in mind Raegan will be on a journey with her friends, and one of her kind that will reveal the real secrets of the government. But every journey has an end. And this one is coming faster than most.
So maybe Raegan should cling onto her second of paradise because hell's about to bite back. Hard.
