Into Shadow
by T.D.
Shields
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: YA Dystopian
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
She’s nineteen. The President’s daughter. They want her
dead.
Poppy’s
father may be the President of the North American Alliance, but that just makes
her a target for those wishing to topple the regime.
Barely
escaping with her life, she must travel across a country ravaged by war and
climate change to seek safety amongst a people who only recently opposed her.
There she must use every skill learned from her military upbringing to survive
terrifying beasts, deadly plant life, and lawless gangs before finally finding
a group willing to accept her.
But her
peace soon proves to be illusory. It’s not only the government that wants her
dead now.

EXCERPT
TWO:
The
hallway was mostly empty with a bench or two placed along the walls. Open doors
lined both sides of the wall, gaping pools of deeper dark opening off the main
path. I tried looking inside a couple of classrooms, but it was too dark to
make out anything.
At
the end of the hallway something caught my eye—a tiny gleam of pale color
against the wall where it should have been dark. I turned my steps to
investigate and crouched down to look closer. It took me a minute to realize
what I was looking at and when realization came, I shoved my hand hard against
my mouth to hold back a whimper. The white gleam came from bones piled in a
jumbled heap against the wall. Judging by the empty skull peering from the
mound, the bones were human.
Even
worse, behind the first heap of bones was another. And another. I wasn’t sure
how many there might be continuing back through that hallway. I wasn’t going to
find out either. Investigating this was not a job for one guard on her first
patrol. I stumbled to my feet so I could turn and run for the exit. Suddenly, I
heard a noise behind me. Not much, just a whisper of sound like a sliding
footstep against the tiled floor. I whirled, trying to locate the source of the
noise, but I could see nothing.
“Marcii?”
I called. I admit it, my voice shook a little. Silence answered me. “Hello?” I
called again.

AUTHOR
BIO:
After
writing stories in her head for the last 30+ years, Tara finally
decided to take a stab at writing them down to share them with others.
Tara has a
husband, 4 kids, and 5 cats to care for along with a full-time job and contract
work on the side, so finding time to write is the biggest challenge. Since her
most productive hours are from 12-5 a.m. anyway, Tara usually gives up sleep in
favor of writing.
