Scion — Stephen L. Nowland

A VOICE FROM THE PAST A series of messages recorded long ago draw scavenger Zinada Fierro along a trail of clues left by her ancestor. Haunted by memories dark and foreboding, she will risk all to unravel the mystery that beckons from the past and take up a monumental task left to her family. A CITY STEEPED IN CORRUPTION The post-apocalypse city-state of Mineros is not for the faint of heart. Ruled with an iron grip for decades, Mineros now finds itself under a new kind of ruler, one who wants to improve the lives of its citizens over the ruling elite. They won't go quietly though, forcing the new Executive to balance  his ambitions against the threat of powerful  factions seeking to usurp his position.
