I am taking great satisfaction in the fact that I am putting Hostess Twinkies in the kid’s goodie bags for my youngest basset’s birthday party. I bought three boxes, so I should definitely have some extra. I might just add those to my Zombie Apocalypse emergency pantry. I know they have a long shelf life. I giggled when I bought them and I am giggling at them now as they are sitting, waiting to be distributed. I just feel like the kids will enjoy them like I did when I was young. Nothing healthy…nothing natural..nothing good for you. Just pure yummy. But here is the kicker. I’m an adult now. If I eat the Twinkie, it will be gross and the memory will be shattered, so I don’t dare eat it myself. Plus I might just have a heart attack.

Sixteen-year-old Joy Montgomery, daughter of Zephyr the Magnificent, the great magician, can only reminisce of better times. Before the Superiors. Before the uprisings. Long ago. Before the dying Earth ripped the family she loved away from her. She can only dream of the adventure life must’ve been before their ancestors brought the apocalyptic devastation in the form of disastrous climate change.
In this desolate dystopian future, the Greenleigh orphans are “privileged” with the task of building mechanical trees for the post-apocalyptic survivors in Bygonne, so their world behind The Wall can breathe another day, and so the Superiors may continue their malevolent reign.
Lured by a yearning for freedom, tenacious curiosity, and hunger for adventure, Joy discovers hope and magic amid the misery, and power in her promise to care for those remaining, whom she loves enough to risk her life for. To save them, herself, and the boy she adores from the abuse and slavery by the Superiors, Joy must entrust the aid of an unlikely ally who harbors a dangerous secret.
With an intriguing stranger at the helm, Joy and the treemakers embark on an intense and terrifying, yet liberating quest for the truth about the existence of the forbidden paradise beyond The Wall.

But things are about to change.

With the help of genetic counselors and fertility specialists, she and Tim have been striving for a miracle-sibling for Ally.
And now they have one: a precious baby boy they name Owen.
But all is not well, and soon Claire begins spotting alarming quirks in Owen’s behavior that suggest he is stricken with Dukate Disease, the terminal illness that took her brother in 1979. If Claire is right and Owen is sick, other disturbing things may also be true. Things like: Claire has been raped; Owen is not Tim’s son; and Owen is going to die.
As the truth of Owen’s conception emerges, Claire finds herself at the mercy of an unthinkable choice. Her decision—and its harrowing consequences—threaten not only her career and her marriage, but even her freedom.
