Blake Raintree, the heroine of The Secret Under My Skin, is now 18,
returning to the city of her birth as an aide to a justice council charged with
trying to address the wrongs of the technocaust. While in the city, Blake
submits the ID code from the microchip that was implanted in her arm in infancy

she has been denied all her life, Blake faces a harsh choice. A 2006 JAB (
Junior Advisory Board) Pick, The Raintree Rebellion is nominated for the
OLA Red Maple Award.
