Cover Reveal
Sixteen-year-old
Avene was sentenced to prison at thirteen for a crime she didn't commit. Now
she has a chance to win her freedom back – if she enters the Headhunters Race.
Second prize isn't so bad either, an upgrade to the Leisure Prison if you make
it to the finish line. To win either prize, Avene and the other prisoners must
navigate one hundred and fifty miles of dense forest, desert, and worst of all,
cannibal territory.
With a mechanical collar timed to
strangle the prisoners if they're not back in nine days, Avene allies herself
with seventeen-year-old McCoy, another prisoner that insists on helping her at
every turn and a boy she's trying hard not to fall for. Together they battle
nature, other prisoners, and the timed death collars to win the coveted prize.
But when Avene is tested with one deadly conflict after another, she realizes
there is more at stake than winning her freedom – first she has to
survive.
Kimberly is the mother of
two awesome kids, wife of the nicest man in the world, and her dog's best
friend. She works for a software company by day and writes middle grade and young adult science fiction and fantasy novels in her spare time. She lives with her family in the beautiful Sonoran Desert.
