Where religion is tyranny, taking on the regime is dangerous. For a woman, it can be DEADLY.
MERYN FLINT BEAT THE ODDS.
She lives quietly now in her tiny tin house at Shady Dell under the protection of close friends. She’s holding down a good job, dating a wonderful man—and happier than she’d ever imagined a low-caste woman in the Christian States of America could be.
But the Reformation Directorate’s ever-changing roster of laws continues to tighten like a giant noose around the theocracy’s women. And every day, increasing numbers of women are punished and brutalized by the Sanctioned Church . . . in the name of God.
Reeling at the impact on her friends and desperate to
bring about real change, Meryn speaks out. Her ideas catch fire among the nation’s women, making her very popular.
Very visible.
AND VERY DANGEROUS

In a society where religion rules, one woman discovers the only rules are about SURVIVAL.
IN THE CHRISTIAN STATES OF AMERICA, A WOMAN'S PLACE IS WITH A MAN. NO EXCEPTIONS.
Although she’s legally an adult, eighteen-year-old Meryn Flint must live at home until her stepfather, Ray, finds her a husband. That’s the law.
But when Ray kills her mother and Meryn must flee for her own safety, she quickly discovers there’s no safe place in the CSA for a woman on the run. Unless she’s willing to marry her former boyfriend—a man who’s already demonstrated his capacity for violence—she’ll be forced to live on the street. And that’s a dangerous option for a woman alone.
As time runs out, Meryn is offered a third path: build herself a tiny house, a safe place to call home. Even though it’s a violation of her Family Duty as well as every moral law on the books, Meryn seizes the chance.
BUT EVEN A TINY TIN HOUSE MIGHT NOT BE ENOUGH TO SAVE HER . . .
