“It belonged to somebody I really cared for,” Catherine said, glancing at the deserted road. Elisabeth did the same, listening to the silent song of snowflakes falling. It was like listening to the laughter of invisible souls.
“It belonged to my sister,” Catherine added, and her voice caught.
“I didn’t know you had a sister,” Elisabeth replied.

PANOPTIC SNOW is a speculative fiction series of seven novels, written by Blake Lavia. The narrative follows the children of scientists who conducted disastrous experiments. The children grew up alone, constantly surveilled or imprisoned. Most of them were forced to believe a lie, while the others were trained to become torturers. Caught in a military complex underground the scientists' children, now young adults, are presented with two choices. They can submit to the system that has turned them into experiments, or they can let the horrors of the past free.
The series explores how the younger generation can correct the mistakes of their fore-bearers, attempting to heal both themselves and the world.

PANOPTIC SNOW, also the title of the first novel of the series, is not currently published. Blake Lavia is in the process of looking for the perfect avenue to publish their books.
