Caragh O'Brien creates a
dystopian future in a world devestated by climate change where it has been 300 years since Lake Michigan became
Unlake Michigan. As a midwife apprenticed to her mother, 16-year-old Gaia
Stone is expected, like any other midwife, to bring the first three babies she
delivers each month to the Enclave to satisfy its demands for new citizens. When
her parents are taken for questioning by the Enclave, Gaia takes over for her
mother, even though she's not entirely comfortable following orders
unquestioningly anymore. Her quest to track down and save her parents leads her
into the Enclave itself, where she befriends the handsome Captain Grey, a man
with his own secrets, and discovers the unsettling truths behind the Enclave's
need for children. Readers who enjoy adventures with a strong heroine standing up to authority
against the odds will enjoy this compelling tale.
