Brickhouse Tavern Humble

*THIS NOVEL HAS CERTAIN GORY SCENES AND MURDERS, PLEASE READ WITH CAUTION* Welcome to Main City, a place where when each child turns thirteen, they must go through a process known as Testing to see which role in society they fit-and it they're deemed worthy enough to live. Jonathan Lee is seven years old when they take him from his home, and just nine months into it, he's announced dead. However, Jonathan isn't dead, testing a bit too well on all the experiments they make him do. Labeled as a threat in the case that if he went rogue, the Higher Ups make the decision to off him. Miraculously, Jonathan survives, and escapes, hiding out in an unknown town far from Main City. Ten years later, Jonathan is still haunted by his past, though he gains a sidekick, a prodigy child by the name of Celia. Everything changes when Destry comes around, seeking to meet a friend in Cyder Hill. Everything changes when he decides to help Celia go back home.

Miranda a épousé Arthur à la place de sa sœur Ashley, qui devait initialement se marier avec lui. Mais lorsqu’Ashley est tombée gravement malade et est partie à l’étranger pour soigner une tumeur dont l’issue était incertaine, Miranda a pris sa place pour préserver l’union entre les deux familles. Arthur n’a jamais accepté ce mariage. Il aimait Ashley car il voyait en elle la fille qui lui avait sauvé la vie lorsqu’ils étaient enfants. Il traitait Miranda avec froideur, incapable d’oublier la femme qu’il pensait avoir perdue. Pourtant, malgré son indifférence, Miranda est tombée profondément amoureuse de lui et a supporté cinq années de mariage difficile. Puis Ashley revient de l’étranger, guérie. Arthur croit retrouver l’amour qu’il avait perdu, sans comprendre qu’il est peut-être déjà en train de perdre quelque chose de bien plus précieux. Car parfois, on ne réalise la valeur de ce que l’on possède que lorsqu’il est sur le point de disparaître.
