An invisible, uncrossable physical barrier
encloses the Unified States. The Line is the part of the border that
lopped off part of the country, dooming the inhabitants to an unknown
fate when the enemy used a banned weapon. It’s said that bizarre
creatures and superhumans live on the other side, in Away. Nobody
except tough old Ms. Moore would ever live next to the Line.
Nobody
but Rachel and her mother, who went to live there after Rachel’s dad
died in the last war. It’s a safe, quiet life. Until Rachel finds a
mysterious recorded message that can only have come from Away. The
voice is asking for help.
Who sent the message? Why is her
mother so protective? And to what lengths is Rachel willing to go in
order to do what she thinks is right?
