This would be a life that she wants for herself and for her mother in particular. When the trials for the inspection of immunity begin, she realizes that nothing is the same that was told. The reality was too dark and she might not have survived if a stranger had not pulled her away from all of this right on time. Though she survived apparently there are a lot of enemies who are coming after her now and they want her dead for sure.
Author Ramona Finn introduces the real threat in the later stages of the novel. Tylia runs not from the virus but rather from the people who threw her into the trials. The complete series The GEOs: The Complete Series is available in the voice of Alexander Hunter which could be more beneficial than a single book. The Culling: The Complete Series is another complete series by the author that goes at a quick lightning pace.
