Chapter One

Grace Herlum was never meant to be born. The human population was massive and had continued to expand at an astounding rate.
The government began to panic, causing hasty decisions and job cuts that effected people world wide.
But in 2060 a new law was put in place.
Child birth was banned and anyone who disobeyed was executed, along with their child.
It is now 2085 and Grace is 15 years old.
Will she be able to stay hidden and survive until this law is lifted?
Or will she be found and executed for the worst crime imaginable?
Living.
