Synopsis
The futuristic world of Craigluy has been divided into three territories and three economic classes. A large wall separates the territories, so the poor cannot mingle with the rich.Since President Esther, the ruler over all of Craigluy, believes the poor do not have adequate means to take care of children, they are no longer allowed to procreate. Pregnant mothers are imprisoned until their babies are born, then the infants are taken away.
Emma Whisperer is the last child to survive. She is the last child born in lower-class Territory L before the law was instituted in the year 2080. She is the last eighteen-year-old.
Emma struggles to understand why she was spared while others weren’t. She doesn’t like the laws and believes they should be repealed. Her family doesn’t agree with her; they discourage her rebellious streak. Yet, she helps them to cover up their own family rebellion. She helps them to hide a big secret, a secret that could be both disastrous and deadly for members of their family.
As she meets new people along the way, Emma learns who she can and cannot trust. And, in the end, she makes a gut-wrenching decision that may be disastrous for everyone.
She finds herself in danger for doing what she feels is right.

Thanks for hosting!
Thanks, so much for featuring my series on your blog today. I’m so excited to share all my novels with you! I hope everyone enjoys Emma’s wild ride!
Look great
How long did it take you to write your book?
Hi Edgar, Thank you.
Hi Bernie, It took me about two years to write the first book. Once the first book was finished I continued on writing the rest of the series. Thanks for your question.
:-)
Bernie, thanks for the smile.
What books are next??
Hi Donna, I have three books out in the Extinction Of All Children series. Journey To Territory M and Journey To Territory U are the next books in the series. Sadly that will probably be the end of the series, unless I come up with another journey for Emma to go on. I could maybe do that one day if my brain lets me. lol I am currently working on a women's fiction/drama/romance novel. It's about a woman who finds herself left alone with a child after her husband leaves her. She has to figure out how to move on without him. I'm working on it now and I hope it's out by next spring. Thanks for your question.
