A mysterious mansion. A society on the brink.  A fight for their lives.

When the government implements a new tagging program, Matt’s family and three others decide it’s time to get out. Leave it all behind and flee North. Their destination? A mysterious mansion in the mountains left to Matt’s family by their grandfather, Elias.

Why he left it to them, no one knows. But the mansion, like their grandfather, holds many secrets. As Matt, Luca, Bennet, and Nolan explore its halls, they quickly realize there is more than just the curious libraries and striking stained-glass windows. What Elias left them isn’t a mansion at all, it’s a training ground for warriors.

What they discover will not only terrify them to their core, but also force them to confront their untimely destinies. The secrets they’ve unearthed can no longer remain hidden, for there is a darker scheme unfolding that will alter their paths forever. For Matt and the others, a decision must be made.

It’s time to hide, or hunt. There’s no other choice.

This coming-of-age story will captivate fans of Ready Player One and Stranger Things and is ideal for clean fiction readers aged 12+.
