Mortality: Part Three — Cege Smith

With less than forty-eight hours to go before her final trial, Laney still isn't certain that she'll be allowed to participate although it would change the course of her life forever. Tested in more ways than one, she finds that her body and mind betray her at the worse possible times. The side effects of her treatment protocol are proving to be as much of a mystery to her as to those around her.

Drake, who she once thought an ally, treats her with only professional courtesy. He has made it clear that beyond her training, she's on her own. Then an unexpected turn of events leads him to disclose a shocking secret that Laney can't ignore.

Laney walks a fine line between right and wrong, and she realizes it won't take much to sway her one way or the other. With her future on the line, she will be forced to make choices that could come back to haunt her.
