The Direction

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Devastated by a massive depletion in earth's population in the 21st and 22nd centuries, society crumbles and governments fall apart. That's when an NGO called The Direction steps in to save humanity. With DNA analyses they have selected the best subjects for re-population, and in the early 23rd century The Direction controls small communities in what was once known as Colorado. With the help of APA, an artificial intelligence governing system, diet and lifestyle habits are monitored, printed material has been eliminated, connections to any society remaining in other countries has been severed, and religion has been banned.

With no one to marry, 25 year old Lila Collins is about to lose her place in her community as she is scheduled to be relocated to a surrogacy facility. Meanwhile, Major Don Bachman is a highly decorated officer in The Direction’s Defense Industry, but when he sees the transfer orders for Lila, he decides to risk his position to save her.

Bitter about the loss of her dad and her friends who went against The Direction and embraced Christianity, Lila struggles with anger toward God as she escapes her fate with Don and joins a team of rebel soldiers as their combat medic. Guided by their confident, prayerful leader, they have one goal: Bring down The Direction.

Can they uncover and interrupt The Direction's insidious plans? Can Lila and the team navigate through devastating losses, crippling fear, and an evil organization hellbent on killing them all, to discover God's will and find peace and love in a dystopian world?

Can they find their direction?
