Agenda 21

the long version

"It was once called America, but now it is just 'the Republic.' Following the worldwide implementation of a UN-led program called Agenda 21, the once-proud people of America have become obedient residents who live in barren, brutal Compounds and serve the autocratic, merciless Authorities"--Jacket. When the Authorities took her mother away, Emmeline started questioning the world around her. Are the rumors that somewhere out beyond the fence live those who got away during the Relocations-- the so-called shadow people-- really true? She decides to escape the Compound with her partner, David, and their baby, Elsa. Fleeing the armed enforcers of the Earth Protection Agency, and facing the unknown for the first time in their lives, Emmeline and David run into the shadows in the desperate hope of finding freedom. Continues the story of Emmeline, a young woman who rebels against a brutal regime in a post-government America.
