Nine D M King

16 year-old Faith Monroe needs to know if there's an assigned seat for her in the universe before she loses her life. It's the year 2025, and she's one of several teens slated to discover her expiration date, but there's only one complication: The transport she's riding in has a number of teens, including herself, who never received the extraterrestrial death chip. A device implanted at birth set to kill you at your appointed time. As perfect genetic matches for the leaders of the planet NINE, Faith and her friends must prevent an assimilation of their souls. Training her soul to resist won't be easy. In fact, she'll have to die first. A soul can't fight back while it's still attached to a living being. Faced with a nearly impossible choice, run away or stay and be trained, she summons the fearlessness to fight. Maybe she's finally found the real reason she's survived her illness, to restore the concept of dying by grand design rather than government mandate.
