Subversive Trilogy

In an abandoned coal mine, a group of fugitives huddle 400 feet beneath the surface of the Earth. To the world, and to the Federal Task Force that has been commissioned to hunt them down, they are known as subversives. Dangerous religious zealots who must be captured and imprisoned before their extremism can infect anyone else. Since the night of her parent’s arrest, Gemma Alcott has been in hiding as a subversive. She’s found a home - and someone to love - but she's never forgotten the love she left behind.

Six months after fleeing the Task Force, Gemma Alcott and a handful of fellow believers have found refuge deep in the Pennsylvania wilderness. Tucked away in a hidden encampment known as the Sanctuary, supplied by an aging bookstore owner and her quiet network of allies, it feels—for the first time—like peace. Each night, Gemma falls asleep in Taylor’s arms, surrounded by trees, silence, and the fragile hope that maybe, just maybe, they’re safe.

After the fall of the Sanctuary—and the loss of the boy she loved—Gemma Alcott is a shadow of who she once was. Now living in Winter’s Dam, she takes up Letty Webb’s mantle, offering weary subversives a safe place to land in the quiet corners of a bookstore. It gives her purpose, something to hold on to. But no matter how many people she helps, she can’t outrun the grief—or the haunting question that won’t let her go: What if Taylor Nolan is still alive?
