Ravaged by water wars, famine and drought, the West is once again wild, and peace but a thing of the past. Children are rare. Water is scarce. Life hinges on a delicate balance.
In order to escape a life-prison sentence and win her freedom, Key makes a deal with Gael, the leader of a brutal gang of outlaws known as the Revelers.
Amidst her perilous journey Key stumbles upon an orphaned boy named Kellan and realizes there’s more at stake than she thought. Now, with an opportunity to right her wrongs, and a new-found sense of duty, Key fights to protect what’s left and the future of the west.
Key’s job is simple: a Native American reservation has the region’s last freshwater aquifer beneath it, but it is surrounded by a minefield. Key is the only one who knows how to get in. If she can do it, she will be free.
The Protector is set for release on May 23rd.
