THE REGISTRY TRILOGY

Coming Fall 2014

 

When she escaped to Mexico for a new life, Mia Morrissey wanted one thing: freedom. But now she must risk her hard-won liberty for the freedom of others . . . and the end of the Registry.

 

Undercover as part of a diplomatic mission, Mia returns to America, where the walls have grown ever taller, and the forgotten country faces its most ruthless leader yet. With Andrew, Carter, and the members of Affinity by her side, she embarks on a dangerous journey to defeat Grant, bring down the government, and destroy the Registry once and for all. But when a terrible betrayal blows the operation wide open, Mia discovers she's been used by friends and foes alike. As unsure of her allies as her enemies, Mia doesn't know who to trust, where to turn, or whether the mission she's risking everything for is even worth the sacrifice.

The fate of her friends, her country, and her own humanity hangs in the balance—and Mia is the one who will seal that fate, for better or for worse.
