Mortality: Part Three
How far would a person be willing to go to escape an inevitable death?
With less than forty-eight hours to go, Laney still isn't certain that she'll be allowed to participate in the medical trial that could change the course of her life forever. Tested in more ways than one, she finds that her body and mind betray her at the worse possible times. The side effects of her treatment protocol are proving to be as much of a mystery to her as to those around her.
Drake, who she once thought an ally, treats her with only professional courtesy. He has made it clear that beyond her training, she's on her own. Then an unexpected turn of events leads him to disclose a shocking secret that Laney can't ignore.
Laney walks a fine line between right and wrong, and she realizes it won't take much to sway her one way or the other. With her life on the line, she will have to make choices that will come back to haunt her.

About the author
Cege Smith
26 books92 followersEveryone loves a good origin tale. Cege's started when she was eight years old. She snuck out of bed late one night and into the living room to watch TV. Flipping through stations with the volume turned down low, she came across a rerun of a movie called The Exorcist. She was terrified yet mesmerized.
Cege wasn't unfamiliar with the idea of the battle between good and evil. She attended Catholic school in a small town in rural Wisconsin, and at the time knew the 'age appropriate' stories from the Bible. Nothing in those stories prepared her for the visual onslaught of watching the battle between the priests and the demon for the soul of the young Linda Blair. Cege was deeply disturbed by the movie, but nonetheless a seed was planted that night. That seed grew into a rampant fascination with all things supernatural.
Sleepovers turned into B-rated horror film marathons. Her library card was used to bring home piles of books about ghosts and vampires. She still isn't quite sure who she loved first, Stephen King or Freddy Krueger. By the time she was twelve, Cege took a turn at penning her own spooky tales. That love of things that go bump in the night and scare you to death has only grown stronger throughout the years.
The paranormal and supernatural take center stage in all of Cege's stories. Over the years, she has crafted her own origin stories about vampires (the Bloodtruth series), zombies (the Twisted Souls series), and ghosts, angels, and demons (the Shadows series). She's also taken on the folklore around the Fountain of Youth (the Immortal End series beginning with Ageless). There is something for every reader of the paranormal in Cege's books.

Good book
I like this story the concept is interesting and the moral questions throughout make you think. I do not like how short all the books are they could have all been put into one book. I look forward to the next book.
