More DescriptionFlorence Nightingale's life is thrown into chaos when a violent fight between races finally reaches her home in Brooklyn, NY. She flees to North Carolina where a mysterious rural community reluctantly allows her to live among them. Ruled by a self-appointed King and Queen, the Colony is divided from within. Women are raffled off at the age of sixteen, breaking religious code means certain death, and under no circumstances are races mixed.When her father is publicly executed for a crime he didn't commit, Florence focuses her attention on rebelling against the monarchy and uprooting the truth behind the Colony's darkest secrets. The only problem is her marriage raffle is looming near, and the more Florence uncovers about the Colony-including the death of her father-the more it endangers both her safety and her sanity.
