The Morning Star
(Independently published May 31, 2017)
"She's sitting in the middle of the muddy road, her skin blue from the cold, her wet hair plastered to the sides of her face and neck. She's no older than seven years old and I recognize her immediately. She's the little girl I saw digging through the dumpster, the one who saluted me and smiled. Strapped to her chest is a brick of explosives." Exiled from the Capitol after her father is assassinated, Ayelet Rhys becomes the heartless mercenary of Territory Six, known only as the Morning Star. She keeps her head shorn, hides her facial features under thick clay paint, and her body beneath layers of amorphous, asexual clothes. For three years, she avoids being identified while searching for former friends and family ... seeking proof of life.
