The Undoing
Just before Rebecca’s brother died, he made her promise one thing: Discover the truth behind the ruthless killer claiming countless lives, leaving everyone else to wonder if they are next. This is a killer that has no cure and leaves no survivors.
But if her brother’s suspicions were right, the biggest threat isn’t a virus. It is something far more dangerous. The only clue Rebecca has to go on is a mysterious purple light glowing behind a mountain during the quietest hours of the night.
Jonathan’s death thrusts Rebecca from the safety of a sheltered life in Tier 3. She is now forced into a role she doesn’t feel equipped to handle. If she is to succeed, she must confront her fear and avoid the Council’s watchful eyes.
