BOOK 1


Matilda was born into a cruel world.
Her Community is persecuted by the neighboring territory that has vowed its end. Matilda learned from her elders how to resist. She knows the rules of survival, handles weapons, and fights perfectly. She is brilliant, strong, ambitious... Many hopes rest on her.

Until the day the new generation is stricken by an unknown disease, in the most secure place of the Community. Matilda what if it wasn't just an accident?
What if it was something far more momentous? Something that would affect everyone, including herself?

What if, behind the border, the front line that no one dares to talk about, this no-man’s land that it is forbidden to cross on pain of death, people thought differently?
Could history go any other way?

Matilda struggles to find the truth.
What she discovers could change her future and that of all humanity.
