About this audiobook
When Vera is sent beyond the settlement’s sacred Path to find a missing Founder, she discovers a dangerous secret buried in the wilderness. An ancient machine, a mysterious doctor, and a forgotten directive force Vera to question everything she has been taught about the past—and what it means to protect the living.
