DAY 1: FRIDAY, OCTOBER 27, 2034
QUADRANT OP-439
(FORMERLY SUBURBAN COLUMBUS, OHIO)
9:10AM
Careen Catecher was just a few steps from the front door of the history building when a wave of panicked students poured out, driving her back into the quad. Someone's backpack knocked her coffee mug out of her hand. A guy she didn't know grabbed her roughly by the elbow and spun her around without breaking stride, dragging her with him as he ran.
"Come on! Didn't you hear? We're supposed to report to the student center."
"Why? What's happening?"
The first wail of the disaster siren drowned out his answer, and she cringed as they ran across campus in the growing stampede, thinking in a detached way that she'd picked the wrong day to be late for class.
Author Book Description:
Two strangers—their destinies entwined—must work together to thwart a terrorist the country never suspected.
The Office of Civilian Safety and Defense has guarded the public against the rampant threat of terrorism for the last fifteen years with the full backing of the US government. Their carefully crafted list of Civilian Restrictions means no concerts or sporting events, no travel, no social media, no cash transactions, and no driver's licenses for eighteen-year-olds Tommy and Careen. The OCSD has even outlawed grocery stores—all in the name of safety.
Now, there's a new threat—airborne chemical weapons that could be activated at any time. But the OCSD has an antidote: just three drops a day is all it takes to stay safe. It's a small price to pay for safety. Or is it?
