MY BOOK BEGINNINGS

The cell held fifteen men. It was ten by twelve and stank of sweat, filth and fear. The only amenity offered was a hole in the center of the concrete floor which served as a toilet.

Why they are in the cell, I can’t tell ya.

GOODREADS BLURB

The brilliant Dr. Peter Jance, a Nobel Prize-winning physicist, is only weeks away from succumbing to cancer.

Daughter of Nothing by Eric Kent Edstrom

“I seem to recall you have the key to the pit and the remote control for the front gate.”

“Say I broke down the door to the medical ward and wheeled Vaughn out onto the quad. Say I let Humphrey out and opened the front gate. Where would you go with them?”

BLURB

Few people even know that the Scion School exists. Tucked away on a private Caribbean island, the school is host to thirty-six exceptionally gifted students, all orphans. They train and study every day to prepare themselves for an immense responsibility, to lead humankind back from the brink of extinction.

At least, that’s what they’ve been told.

Among the thirty-six is Jacey, 17, one of four Scions in the Eagle class. She is the favorite of the 93-year-old headmaster, Dr. Carlhagen. But when Jacey overhears a conversation between a strange visitor and one of the school’s first graduates, she learns a stunning fact about her future. One that Dr. Carlhagen has kept from all the Scions.
