A DISCOVERY HIDDEN IN DARKNESS... A TRUTH BROUGHT TO LIGHT... \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\_ What if… scientific evidence of a coming extinction event was known and kept secret? What if… your survival was dependent on being chosen? What if… the only choice you had was to give up that chance? \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\_ Three years after NASA disclosed a top secret discovery, the human race was on the verge of extinction. A cataclysmic solar phenomenon unlike any other would wipe out all life on Earth at the end of the decade. Now, only seven years remain. Before the uprising, the nation’s leaders developed radical solutions. Walls segregated regulation from rebellion. The country divided into territories. To survive, citizens were to obey the strict laws that required them to work toward a dismal future under military rule. And with the nation’s leaders in alliance, vast underground colonies became mankind’s single hope for survival—a fate only secured for a chosen few. When twenty-three year old Aubrey Adams returns to her hometown, a place now plagued with oppression, her sudden resistance sparks a drastic turn of events that leads her to a more sinister secret—one that comes with a dire warning: Run.

A WORLD BUILT OF SECRETS... AN ALLEGIANCE TO ACTION... NASA’s discovery was only the beginning. Now, six uncertain years stand between the end of the world above, and the new world below. After the mandated evacuation, Evan and Aubrey’s journey to refuge leads somewhere unexpected—a resistance camp hidden within the canyons of the Utah desert. With the help of the camp’s leader, they learn to survive the brutal and barren wasteland of lawless land beyond the territory walls. As Evan’s suspicion surrounding the camp leader’s past arises, he seeks to rescue friends and family from inside regulation, but when he arrives at the evacuee camps, finds nothing shy of unimaginable—geodesic domes surrounded by laser fences, mountaintops lined with wind turbines, and miles of burned forests trapped with minefields. But it’s nothing compared to what he finds inside—a covert research facility that houses much deeper secrets—ones that have only accelerated mankind’s extinction in an attempt to save the chosen few. As resistance looms in the fading light, their exploration leads the group to a horrifying conclusion—someone has been tracing their every step, and soon, the world above will be threatened by the ever-changing sun. But could there still be bigger truths still waiting to be unearthed? Could the colonies be a lie?
