They stole him from his mother. Then they trained him to become one of them.
Thirteen-year-old Joseph Young belongs in Fox Hollow, a small farming town where generations have lived, neighbours protect their own, and family means everything. Then the Children's Alliance Coalition comes to town.
Created under the promise of protecting children, the Coalition begins auditing families against a ruthless new standard. Those who fail will lose their children forever - taken from their homes, placed with approved Coalition families, and erased from the lives of those who love them. When Joseph tries to hide himself and the other children of Fox Hollow, he is captured and torn from his widowed mother.
Over the next six years, Joseph is reshaped into an Enforcer for the very regime that stole him. Behind the Coalition's polished image, he discovers a world built on fear, deception, and hidden agendas. But when a shocking death thrusts him into leadership, Joseph suddenly holds the power he once feared.
Then, whispers surface of a rebel haven called the Talon. Children are being hidden there. Families are being protected. And among the rebels, the one person Joseph has never stopped searching for: his mother.
Now Joseph must choose to risk everything to protect the rebels, or betray the Talon and lose the last connection to the boy he used to be.
The Enforcer's Tale is Book One of The Talon Series, a gripping dystopian story of family, survival, rebellion, and one young man's fight to reclaim himself from the system that tried to own him.
