<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>After she captures a Lander on the eve of her 18th Born Remembrance, Selah Chavez is forced to leave her family as she changes from bounty hunter to the one everyone is hunting.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>In post-apocalyptic America, Selah Chavez is crouched in long grass on a shore littered with the rusted metal remnants of a once-great city. It is the day before her eighteenth Born Remembrance, and she is hunting, though many people refuse to eat animal flesh, tainted by radiation during the Time of Sorrows. What Selah's really after are Landers, mysterious people from a land across the big water who survive the delirium-inducing passage in small boats that occasionally crash against the shoreline. She knows she should leave the capture to the men, but Landers bring a good price from the Company and are especially prized if they keep the markings they arrive with.<br/><br/>Everything falls to pieces when the Lander Selah catches is stolen by her brothers--and Selah wakes up the next morning to find the Lander's distinctive mark has suddenly appeared on her own flesh. Once the hunter, Selah is now one of the hunted, and she knows only one person who can help her--Bohdi Locke, the Lander her brothers hope to sell.<br/><br/>With evocative descriptions of a strange new world that combines elements of scientific advances, political intrigue, and wilderness survival, Bonnie S. Calhoun weaves a captivating tale of a world more like our own than we may want to admit.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><b>The Time of Sorrows is long past.<br/>The future of Selah and her people is shrouded in mystery.<br/>And the clock is ticking.<br/></b><br/>Hidden in the tall grasses along a shore littered with the rusted metal remnants of a once-great city, a hunter crouches.
