The Secret Under My Skin
The Story
Blay Raytee has no family, no birthday, no proper name, and
almost no
memories. Her home is in a "model social welfare project" in the island
prefecture of Terra Nova where she mines an old landfill for reusable
material. But Blay's world changes forever when she is chosen to help a
powerful young bio-indicator.
This new life sets Blay on a path of discovery that reveals the secrets
of
her past, giving her a future and a sense of her own worth.
The 24th century I've created in The Secret Under My Skin
is not the
future we must have, but it is the future we might have if we aren't
careful.
I wrote this book to help readers begin to think about what sort of
world
we will create for our children and grandchildren if nothing changes.
