Deuce struggles for respect in a new topside town where she is treated like a child and avoided by Fade, a situation that compels her to volunteer for patrol duty and protect topside citizens from an unexpected upsurge in Freak activity.

Deuce's whole world has changed. Down below, she was considered an adult, but now, topside in a town called Salvation, she's a brat in need of training. Deuce doesn't fit in with the others, and she only knows how to fight. Book #2
