IRON PENDULUM Synopsis:
A month ago, Avery thought the world ended outside Dome Four. Thought she was one of the few of her kind. Thought the war that brought the human race to the brink of extinction was over.
But a month can change everything.
After fighting to escape a tyranny she didn't even know existed, Avery has had to come to grips with all the secrets she's uncovered. But more secrets continue to come to light, revealing how little of her world she truly knew. When evidence starts to show that Dome Four might be under siege, Avery knows what she must do.
Returning to the dome she longed to escape is a challenge for Avery, but now she knows there’s corruption lurking in the shadows. A massive steam shortage leaves half the dome without power, and people are falling ill. Dying.
And they’re blaming Avery.
A month can change everything. One more month could kill everyone. The clock is ticking.

EXCERPT:
Sari whooped in excitement behind us. “Get in the side tunnel, guys!”
I knelt as the tidal wave of sewage raged from behind and washed over us, pushing the mini battalion of burned men back to wherever they came from. Their roars became gurgles, then disappeared in the fading rush of water. Limbs flailed against the torrent, but they were no match for the tide.
The battle was over before it could even begin.
Jaxon stood up, and I couldn’t help but laugh.
Alice did as well. “You’re covered in crap!” she crowed.
Jaxon’s sigh sent static through my headset. “You guys were supposed to run.”
“We did. Back to the tunnel three feet away, and watched the poo typhoon cover you. It was one of the finer moments of my life. I’m burning the image into my mind.”
“You’re setting poo on fire? You miscreant.”
