~* Book Two of the Forgotten Children Series *~
From the ashes of a tragedy, through the changing tides of a scandal, and across a mindfield of moral, ethical, and military concerns, Series Six has won the right to have their first drink of freedom. But questions loom as the costs of those freedoms are weighed against the secrets they carry in their very DNA, a truth that can rattle the foundations of the civilization they wish to join if it becomes public knowledge. History has not always been kind to those who share the legacy each of Series Six members carries in their very cells, and the stakes could not ride any higher. While Hope may spring eternal, in Anslaw's past no such well was ever found, at least not one that was even whispered about in an age when Silence meant everything. When you've spent the only life you've ever known locked in a cage when even speaking up might get you killed, all will do anything to stay sane, some will even start to dig. As the Families' eyes turn towards the skies they never thought to see trouble looms up like the stains of the past are discovered like rust in depths of what was once their prison. From the places hidden away behind walls and locked doors the truth of Anslaw's past begins to ooze out, and the consequences of those secrets threaten to ruin everything. As the foundations of that changed prison are left rattled by disasters large and small, hope begins to seep up from the deepest of tunnels and it is made clear the depths to which some will go to escape a nightmare and the lengths to which some will go to hide their secrets. As the whispers of the past echo up from the deepest shadows of Anslaw and begin affect future days, a promise made long into history speaks up to change once and for all the fate of a children history tried to forget.
