Loudening Silence

Ashlyn Ford is deaf and alone in a world where even the strongest perish, and she has been deemed a traitor in her secluded, cult-like, fenced-in community. Her own father is out to kill her to protect his misguided dreams for control as Ashlyn has stolen his journal that could bring to light his sinister intentions.

When Ashlyn meets a Robin Hood-like Eli Sanders and his group of rebels from beyond the fences, she discovers acceptance and a newfound reason to challenge her father's abuse and diabolical goals. Aside from her parents, Eli and his group are the first people she has encountered that know ASL.

He and his brother Reed, who is also deaf, help Ashlyn understand the importance of trust and teach her that family can be found anywhere. The budding romance between Eli and Ashlyn is the fuel in their fight against her father.

In their efforts to protect their home and their future, Ashlyn and Eli discover that there is so much more to Ashlyn's past than they ever expected.

Ashlyn must fight the rage that consumes her every thought to protect those she has come to love. The future is uncertain, but she and Eli are determined to survive together.
