Desperate measures were taken to find a cure for the Aging Plague. Deals were made and consciences were lost...Mercy lives in the Foundation, the lowest stratum in an isolated city called the Tier. When a deadly outbreak strikes its citizens, her brother, who has a rare genetic condition, is given the unique opportunity to work alongside scientists and researchers in the Core to find a cure. Circumstances take a turn for the worse when he disappears, forcing Mercy to embark on a dangerous search to find him. Along the way, rumors of terrible experiments on children like him begin to circulate.In this compelling science-fantasy narrative, self-published debut author Raven Marie Morris crafts an autocratic society in which the needs of the masses are choked by the greed of the few. Aged is a gripping tale of sacrifice, human fragility, and the high cost of survival in a harsh and unforgiving world.
