We're leaving. Right now.
Upstairs, grab your things then be back here in ten minutes! Do you hear me?

I jump at the harshness of dad's words, but nod, along with my brothers before scurrying up to my room. Bruce said that nobody could pass the test on the first try, but we did. Now we have to run.

Fourteen year old Kara Mason used to live at a fusion energy generator on the outskirts of a major city. She used to travel with her brothers every week to attend classes inside the safety of the city, surrounded by force fields that were meant to keep everything else out. Until she and her twin brother Hank passed the test and were summoned to attend the prestigious but mysterious Institute in preparation for their positions as a scientists at the Northern Laboratories, that is.

The problem is, Kara doesn't understand why they weren't meant to pass the tests, or why that means they have to run. All she does know is that she's terrified of what's on the other side of the force field. She'll have to face more than just the diseased monsters order to get the answers she needs.

Due North is an exciting post apocalyptic thriller, set in a world recovering from a horrific disease. The government keeps people safe, but it comes at a cost. Does Kara have what it takes to navigate the outside world or will she lose herself in the halls of the frozen laboratories?
