Solstice Dayton treks westward in post-apocalyptic America, believing it’s her destiny to fulfill her dying mother’s dream, but she is pursued by a mysterious hunter across the wasteland. Leaving the war-ravaged east, Solstice hikes cross-country in search of sanctuary. To get there, she must travel across barren wastelands and through savage cities, relying on everything she learned hiding in the sewers. But Solstice has never left the underground, and the West is not what it seems. Old prejudices are back, and the lines between settlers and original peoples are once again drawn. And her escape hasn’t gone unnoticed. She’s being hunted across the Great Plains. In book 1 of The Sunshine Border series, Solstice Dayton is a lone pioneer, learning to love the land and the culture of its indigenous people as she makes the journey westward. Fans of The Postman, 1883, and Dances With Wolves will ride on with The Solstice Manifest, a young adult apocalyptic western where a girl from the sewers learns to love clear sky country. Will Solstice find sanctuary in the West and love along the way? Get the exciting new twist in the Solstice Dayton saga today.
