About this ebook
At the dawn of colonizing planets, humanity supports a bold new experiment on Earth to create three self-sustaining habitats, one underground, one above, and one under the sea. With dreams of colonization, they test human capacity by isolating the inhabitants from the outside world for a year.
Telsa and Simon join the first inhabitants on Oceanus, the undersea habitat. Simon leaves his youngest, Rosie, with her grandmother. It would only be a year, what could go wrong?
Everything runs smoothly until Simon discovers a network of surveillance throughout Oceanus, then Telsa uncovers a rumor of a devastating virus on the Earth's surface. Central Command insists on their isolation but a new security force infiltrates the habitats under the guise that they are there for everyone's protection.
All the while, unbeknownst to any of them, a religious zealot sees the habitats as his destiny, a place where he and his fellow believers can embark on growing a new country.

I love stories.No, I’m not one of those writers who just loved writing since I could hold a pencil – but I loved stories for as long as I can remember.I took to Math and Science much easier than to the Language Arts. I suspect I had a learning disability because I never picked up reading as quickly as my classmates, but I believe I spent more time at the library and had my nose in a book more than many of them (of course, that could be because I read slow, HA!). To this day, I read slower than those around me, including my children. Still, I loved and love stories.To read more about me visit: http://jmmcalpine.com/aboutme/
