To get there, she crosses barren wastelands and savage cities while relying on everything she learned hiding in the underground. Like how to find water that doesn't give you the runs.

She's not okay with that.In book 1 of Solstice Dayton and The Sunshine Border, Solstice Dayton becomes a lone pioneer, learning to love the land and the culture of its indigenous people as she journeys westward.
