Avie Reveare has the normal life of a privileged teen growing up in
L.A., at least as normal as any girl's life is these days. After a
synthetic hormone in beef killed 50 million American women ten
years ago, only young girls, old women, men and boys are left to
pick up the pieces. The death threat is past, but fathers still
fear for their daughters' safety, and the Paternalist Movement,
which was begun to "protect" young women, is taking over all the
choices they make. Like all her friends, Avie still mourns the loss
of her mother, but she's also dreaming about college and love and
what she'll make of her life. But when her dad contracts her to
marry a rich, older man to raise the money to save his struggling
company, her life suddenly narrows to two choices: be trapped in a
marriage with a controlling politician, or run. Her lifelong
friend, student revolutionary Yates, urges her to run to freedom
over the border to Canada. He's always believed she's fearless and
will help her escape if she's willing. As their friendship turns to
passion, the decision to leave becomes harder and harder. Running
away is incredibly dangerous and it's possible she'll never see
Yates again. But staying could mean death. Romantic,
thought-provoking, and frighteningly real, A Girl Called Fearless
is a speculative thriller about fighting for the most important
things in life - freedom and love.
