Games of Greed

Winning means fame and fortune. Losing means her mother's certain death...The Games of Greed have begun.

In a time when the deadly silver sickness plagued the earth, the Honorable Governor Wade Johnson of Mississippi issued a stay at home order. For entertainment of the masses, he selected junior high and high school students to attend the Governor's Underground School that was housed in an underground resort casino. They were required to compete and gambling bets were placed on who would win. Sixteen year old Sara Freeman lived alone with her mother after her father died from silver sickness while he was developing the vaccine for it. Governor Johnson likes the money he earns from gambling, but mostly he wants the vaccine to sell for millions.
