A World of Shadows

By Haley Kleinman

Seventy-eight years after the treaty ending the global war known as The Break, America has tried to put together the nation's broken pieces under the United American Republic, a severe and oppressive government that controls the lives of its citizens. As sixteen-year-old Alexis Birch copes with a tremendous and unexpected loss, she begins to uncover mystifying--and life-threatening--secrets that could change the fate of her crumbling nation. But no matter how hard Alexis tries to do the right thing, she cannot ignore the darkness threatening to tear her apart. From across the sea, the European Protection Forces--a league of young spies and soldiers with remarkable supernatural abilities--has chosen the determined and wickedly intelligent Kai Preston to embark on the most dangerous mission yet: the first post-war journey into the territory of their American enemies, to discover the sinister reason behind their sudden violation of the world treaty. But the deeper Kai gets into the investigation, the harder it is to tell who the real enemy is. In order to find the answers they are looking for, Alexis and Kai must form an unlikely alliance. As the truth gets closer, so do the two of them, and they are forced to decide what is more important: saving their nations or saving each other.
