Showing results by narrator "Nikki Devitt" in Science Fiction & Fantasy

Twitch was born into the system: the system of Society members and lower designates. Unfortunately for her, she belongs to the latter group. Lower designates are tracked for a task and expected to do what they're told, when they're told, from birth on. Twitch has never known anything different. She lives her life from day to day, working at the Pre Ward, trudging home to the complex at night, following the rules because to defy them means imprisonment, or even death. Still, when her only real friend mysteriously disappears, Twitch asks one too many questions.
