Dr. Thomas Smyrna has never been afraid of the law. A stubborn Christian, he's been racking up felonies since high school and organizing a black market for illegal Bibles. But when the government busts his operation-and his father-in-law takes the fall-Smyrna knows he must lie low and protect what family he has left. That is, until the government rounds up all the "unassimilated" and forces them into concentration camps. Desperate to free his wife and children, Smyrna agrees to one last mission-one designed to end the United's cruelty forever. Catalyst is a prequel story in the RED RAIN series, a fast-paced Christian sci-fi adventure that's perfect for fans of THE HUNGER GAMES and LEFT BEHIND. Rachel Newhouse is an author, wife, secretary, and Sunday school teacher from Kansas City, Missouri. Her obsessions are sci-fi, dystopian, and kid lit. When she's not writing, she's cooking Asian food, growing chilis that are too spicy to eat, and watching wildly age-inappropriate shows like My Little Pony and Gravity Falls with her husband, Joe. She also really likes glitter. You've been warned.
