When the world began to collapse under the weight of its own population, the people chose survival at any cost. The result was the Choice Event—a system built not by a government, but by those desperate enough to believe it was necessary.
Now, in a future where faith has been erased and obedience is law, survival is not a right—it is assigned.
At eighteen, every citizen must face the Choice Event, a ritual that determines a single outcome: life… or death. The system is trusted. The process is unquestioned.
Until Daniel’s sister is condemned.
Marion—brilliant, defiant, and dangerously different—is sent to the Gauntlet, a brutal public trial where suffering is spectacle and survival is never guaranteed. As Daniel searches for a way to save her, cracks begin to form in everything he once believed about the world—and the system that controls it.
With time running out, Daniel must decide how far he is willing to go to defy a power no one has ever escaped.
Because some truths are buried for a reason.
And uncovering them may cost him everything.
The Buried Word is a gripping dystopian novel about power, sacrifice, and the dangerous truth that not all systems are meant to be survived.
