Description
"A Modern twist on the story of David and Bathsheba."
Set in a future where clones are seen as second-class citizens and Normals are threatened by their own creation, Scarlet and her Mate Dagmar must fight for their own freedom and the survival. Scarlet was created to be the vessel for an aging actress's brain when she reached maturity. But when her creator dies before the transplant can take place, Scarlet is sold to a clone breeding farm, and only narrowly escapes with the help of a few kind college students.
Desperate for a different future, Scarlet joins her mate Dagmar and his band of 'Wild' Clones, who have rebelled against their masters' and are attempting to build their own society. But when their leader, Napoleon, makes a deal with the illegal Portal gatekeepers to find a world for their colony, Scarlet discovers there is a heavy price for her dream of freedom. Napoleon wants Scarlet. She will be forced to choose between her mate Dagmar who she loves or giving in to Napoleon's demands. To protect the free clone colony on Halcyon, and with danger lurking around every corner, Scarlet must make a stand for herself and all woman clones for the right to choose who is her mate.
If you enjoyed the suspense and adventure of The Hunger Games, then you'll be captivated by Scarlet's journey for freedom in this thrilling novel.

Person
Gail Daley is a self-taught artist and writer with a background in business. An omnivorous reader, she was inspired by her son, also a writer, to finish some of the incomplete novels she had begun over the years. She is heavily involved in local art groups and fills her time reading, writing, painting in acrylics, and spending time with her husband of 40 plus years. Currently her family is owned by two cats, a mischievous young cat called Mab (after the fairy queen of air and darkness) and a mellow Gray Princess named Moonstone. In the past, the family shared their home with many dogs, cats and a Guinea Pig, all of whom have passed over the rainbow bridge. A recent major surgery on her stomach and a bout with breast cancer has slowed her down a little, but she continues to write and paint.
