The Devil Particle

Teens compete for evil honor.

In a dystopian world, senseless violence threatens complete destruction and nuclear annihilation. Scientists have discovered a way to extract evil from everyone, but once the evil is removed, it must be contained in a human vessel. Brave teens-eager to prove themselves and stop the destruction-volunteer to compete in the Vessel Trials. The winner will become The Devil Particle Vessel and save the world.

Seventeen-year-old Paul Salvage wants to prove his worth. Entering the Trials is his big chance to show everyone, including himself, what he is capable of. When a violent tragedy strikes his family, Paul is shaken, and he withdraws. He's ready to give up everything he's worked for until a powerful family friend convinces him to enter.

Now, with even more to prove and everything at stake, Paul must compete against forty-nine other candidates, including his girlfriend and his rival. As they struggle through unimaginable challenges during their race to the top of an abandoned skyscraper, Paul realizes that if he has any chance of winning, he's got to hold it together. Will he survive? Will the world?
