Shadowborn

On a rain-drenched city street, seventeen-year-old Teylin Walker smashes into a boy who materializes out of thin air. Unable to believe her eyes, she follows him and is apprehended by a deadly duo that want not only the boy, but to protect his secret at all costs. The price: Tey's life. Tey manages to evade death, but at the sacrifice of her freedom. She is smuggled to a mystical chain of islands where dreams and reality walk a thin line across a jungle-covered landscape. Amongst the radioactive silver pools and rotting mansions of the archipelago's past, she encounters more children with inexplicable abilities both mysterious and lethal. Wanted for what they can do and forced into slavery, these Shadowborn lack all memory of where they came from; a dangerous secret Tey becomes determined to uncover. Desperate to survive, she joins the charismatic Rob Stryker and his offbeat team of bounty hunters. Rob needs the information Tey possesses about her captors to lead him to his next target. In exchange, he promises to help her get home. Swept into Rob's dangerous underworld, Tey continues to search for clues that bring her closer to the truth of her mysterious island prison. When she rescues an injured Shadowborn from the abuse of a cruel master, she is forced to choose between her own freedom and the lives of those she has come to love. In this thrilling debut, Maren Alder sweeps her readers into the utterly gripping world of the Shadowborn and takes them on an exhilarating ride that will leave them gasping for more.
