Shannan Fitzroy knows a secret about the timeline. She knows North America was never supposed to be a Catholic theocracy. It was never supposed to be almost exclusively white. And it wasn’t supposed to be legal for dissenters to just… disappear.
Shannan knows how to put all of it right. But the men who rule will never allow that to happen.
As her sanity is slowly worn down by her interrogator, one member of the Council must save Shannan from her sociopathic captor before she submits to her brainwashing. Before she becomes a part of the future that should never have been.
Kristin McTiernan was born the daughter of a career military man and spent her childhood bouncing from one country to another. Her love of writing surfaced early, and upon discovering the double threat of comic books and Star Trek in middle school, Kristin spent the majority of her spare time creating new worlds and interesting people to populate them. Following in her parents' footsteps, Kristin enlisted in the Marine Corps at 17 and, upon her discharge three years later, settled into a life pursuing her love of words. She achieved her bachelor's degree in English from Emporia State University in her home state of Kansas and works as an editor to support her writing addiction. She lives in Kansas City with her husband and dog.
