About This Book

Fifty years ago, the Commander came into power and murdered all who opposed him. In his warped mind, the seven deadly sins were the downfall of society. He created the Hole where, without trial, sinners are branded according to their sins and might survive a few years. At best. Lexi Hamilton is branded around her neck with the blue of Lust. Accused of a crime she didn't commit and condemned to the Hole, where every day is a fight for survival. But Lexi is more than the brand on her neck; she swears the Hole will not break her or keep her - she is a fighter and she won't let them win.
