Earth was ruined. Humankind destroyed. Or so they were told. . . . One hundred and fifty years ago, global warming brought humankind to the edge of extinction. In a desperate bid for survival, four thousand genetically enhanced soldiers - the last slice of humanity -were sent to eight space stations. Then the Critamal arrived. Romy dreams of a different life - one free from the constant mark of death and loss. But all she can do is fight alongside her knot and watch as Earth rises and falls in the distance. Untouchable. When a technical glitch during battle leaves Romy and the four other members of Knot 27 hurtling through orbit towards Planet Earth, she knows they are dead one way or another. If the crash doesn't kill them, post-global warming conditions will.And yet the impossible presence of a handsome grey-eyed man on the surface refutes that. So does the fact she's still breathing. Secrets are unmasked. A different version of Earth bursts to the surface. Will Romy survive the betrayal and lies threatening to shatter her mind like glass? Buy now to experience the first book in an action-packed, dystopian trilogy that focuses on the strength of friendship, the burn of betrayal, and the cutting corruption of power. Set in a realistic future Earth.
