Beneath the Blue Umbrella

By Josephine C. Lieder

Far across the universe...

A boy fell in love with his deceased father's research subject.

A girl fell in love with the son of the man who experimented on her.

Happily ever after, right?

Far from it.

For Grant Alexander and Lucy Divine, this is a reality. When their best friend, Jason, goes missing after a botched break-in at a federal building in New York City to recover a stolen artifact, they are not only desperate to find him but also being pursued by a rogue faction of the CIA, the same group responsible for Grant's father's death.

When a recruiter approaches them, promising protection and resources, the two fear they're signing up to work for the world they're trying to escape. Yet if they decline, Jason, along with all of their loved ones, will remain in danger.

In a world of amorphous identities, Grant and Lucy are forced to question everyone, including the true identity of their so-called best friend.

No choice is without heavy sacrifice, and as each step forward drives them farther apart, it begins to look like that sacrifice may be each other.
