Climate change caused worldwide collapse. Regina Shen survives on underwater salvage, but hurricane comes.

Living on the seaward side of barrier walls built to protect against rising seas, Regina’s only means of survival is underwater salvage, which is banned by the World Federation. After a storm takes a friend’s family and home, Regina is determined to help by defying the Federation.

This is a prequel novelette to the Regina Shen series yet reads as a standalone story.

Fans of Hunger Games, Divergent, and Maze Runner will enjoy this science fiction adventure series about a strong young woman facing extraordinary hurdles with tenacity.
