Isolation is testing her sanity, but Cassandra is determined to remain alive. Day after day, food and shelter must be found while she’s hunted by a mysterious entity. What does the thing want with her?

Mathew works to turn his ideas of redemption into a workable plan as he and his ward prepare to embark on a mission to save an untold number of people from experiments that are robbing them of their humanity.

Verose has been told all of her life that ‘the Others’ are soulless monsters. After encountering them, she has her doubts about that. She wants to find out for sure and, if possible, figure out a way to free them.

Maybe it’s better to not fight at all…and just give in.
