Life First: (Dystopian series, book 1) by RJ Crayton

RJ CraytonWhat if the government wanted to take one of your organs to give to someone else? Kelsey Reed lives in a world where the government can take what they want. Only Kelsey’s not ready to give them what they want.

Having been directed to give up her kidney, Kelsey makes a choice that could be deadly: flee. She’ll need the help of her boyfriend, Luke, to make the daring escape. If she’s caught, she could lose everything.

This page-turning thriller with a touch of romance, is the first in the Life First dystopian book series. The thrills and romance continue in our dystopian future in Second Life (book 2 of the series) and Third Life: Taken (book 3 of the series).

About the author, RJ Crayton:

RJ CraytonR.J. Crayton loves “what if” questions. What if the government wanted to steal your organs? What if you were kidnapped and didn’t know why, by whom or long you were going to be held? What if a deadly virus started a pandemic that threatened to wipe out civilization? What if…?

Crayton honed her “what if” thinking as a reporter, working for great newspapers like The Wichita Eagle and The Kansas City Star, where she got to annoy local officials with what ifs. She also worked for several trade publications, including Solid Waste Report, Education Technology News, and Campus Crime. Again, more what ifs.

The tables turned on Crayton when she became a stay-at-home mother caring for her children, and she got stuck answering “what if” questions. After her children were old enough to attend school and ask the teachers the questions, Crayton began writing novels. Her first novel, Life First, was published in 2013. It’s premise is based on the question: What if the government wanted to take your kidney and give to someone else? The answer is the wild ride that is Life First, a BRAG Medallion book. Since penning Life First, Crayton has published two other novels, a short story collection and a book on writing.

When she’s not writing, Crayton spends her time being a ninja mom (stealthy and ultra cool, like moms should be) to her son and daughter. While she lives in the Washington, DC, suburbs at the moment, she loves to travel back to Illinois to visit family. You can find out more about her at http://rjcrayton.com

One man on a decades old mission. A woman who hunts him. And the bullet they share–RATS explodes from the remnants of a war long past to current headlines hiding Washington secrets when two modern-day warriors face off. Both skilled at violence. And deception. Both accustomed to winning.
“Joe Klingler’s novel is an intelligent non-stop page turner.” Manhattan Book Review (5 Star)
Summer greets the land of the midnight sun as a lone rider races across the last American wilderness, delivering on a promise he made long ago. He has many names, but the world only knows a shadow called the Demon.
Claire Ferreti, an Army sniper eager for her first black-ops mission, sips sake in Washington D.C. with her lover, a young, ambitious General whose geosecurity specialty remains classified. When a boy finds a small machine, Claire and the Demon embark on a collision course that leads to a test of skill, a clash of ideologies, and Claire’s unconscious body lying in a typhoon-ravaged jungle. In that instant she becomes the hunted, the Demon’s tool for survival, and an unforeseen threat. As the General pursues them through a labyrinth of lies, and a war-torn jungle, political necessity and financial reality collide like a fireball piercing steel.

“Klingler’s debut offers a deep logistical jungle sure to entertain buffs and newcomers to the techno-thriller genre. Throughout, he displays fierce writing chops.
