Facing down the brutality of life on the plains, but intoxicated by her first taste of real freedom, Lavenia sets off on an adventure that sends her rushing full-tilt toward a moral crossroads. With crackling prose and a blazing intensity, "West of the Known" is a breathtaking tale that reveals the dark consequences of our youthful decisions.Plus, this publication includes an advance preview of Chanelle Benz's highly anticipated debut novel, The Gone Dead.
