Among the Gray

Some cages are made of metal. Others are mental.
Dylan wakes up alone in a room with no door, a bed molded to his body, and without a single memory of how he got there. Elle sits alone in a cell, willing herself to forget a world unwilling to realize the danger on the horizon. When catastrophe strikes, generations are divided as survivors grapple with a disease-ridden shell of a planet. As more life is stolen, isolation becomes the only weapon. As the walls go up, freedoms come down; forcing a pivotal generation to forget traditions and morals in the name of survival.
But not everyone is prepared to conform. Two souls struggle to leave the past in the past, but the longer it takes them to find the answers, the faster they forget what has always been innately true. In this post apocalyptic thriller reminiscent of George Orwell's 1984, someone is always watching. But that doesn't mean there can't be secrets.
Life is not always black and white. Often, the truth is only found somewhere in-between.
