Runa Seven - The Green Enclave....

Jaye Hill

Mysterious deaths in the Enclaves and Jake’s father’s disappearance are linked. Only the school’s hacker and Jake’s beloved Allie can help him find out how


Harry, Jake’s father, has disappeared and his flat has been ransacked. Jake fears he has become involved in some shady dealings in the Green Enclaves, government sponsored forests where the little green vegetation that is left in a ruined world still grows.

Aided by Allie, the girl he is in love with, and Stick, a gifted hacker, Jake plans to get into the Enclave to find out what has happened to his father, but when the Enclave scientist whom he was following is attacked and killed Jake finds himself wanted by the police for the murder.

Will he and Ginny, one of Rakia’s people, be able to rescue Harry before his mysterious attackers find him? Will Stick and Allie get to them in time?
