The Love Collective is everywhere.
It sees everything.
Be not afraid.

Apprentice Flick remembers everything, except the first five years of her life. And for as long as she can remember, Flick has wanted to enter the Elite Academy—home to the best, brightest, and most loyal members of the Love Collective government.

Flick's uncanny memory might get her there, too … even if it is the very thing that marks her as a freak. But frightening hallucinations start intruding into her days and threaten to bring down all she has worked so hard to accomplish. Why is she being hijacked by a stranger's nightmare over and over again?

Moving to the Elite Academy could give Flick the future she's always wanted. But her search for truth may lead to a danger she cannot escape.

"Apprentice is an intriguing story that will leave you second-guessing that new VR headset you just bought and psychoanalyzing your dreams again. Young has a flair for writing the sterile-perfect society of the haunting Love Collective that is both parts psychological thriller and science fiction adventure! Do not miss this story!" — Ronie Kendig, best-selling, award-winning author
