Shattered
Paperback
(Independently published Nov. 26, 2017)
She trusted them. And then she died.
In this young adult ghost thriller, Marris Sheffield, a fifteen-year-old orphan living in a late 21st century academy for unwanted children, is just three years away from phasing out of the program and becoming a valuable member of society. Until then, she’s stuck within the confines of the academy’s heavily fortified grounds.
All is going as expected… until the kids become sick with an undisclosed illness and then a series of deaths occur, deaths which lead Marris and others to question the academy’s agenda.
Rumors have made the rounds. Rumors about the screams coming from the basement. Rumors about what the academy does inside its medical center. And rumors about what really happens to the kids who are adopted.
But those are just rumors…
It’s not until her own death that Marris learns the chilling truth about what really goes on inside the academy, what led to her death, and what brought her to the academy in the first place seven long years ago.
Now, armed with this new information, she must find a way to stop the academy and save her friends before it’s too late.
Shattered is the first book in The Hexon Code series, a story about pain, loss, and the fight for love in a messed up world. Look for the next books in the series including Redeemed and Blackout.
