Phoenix Without Ashes #1

Devon questions the religious elders of his community, Cypress Corners. He loves Rachel, but the elders' computer has determined that Garth makes a better genetic match. When Devon speaks out, the elders banish him. Ever curious, Devon finds a tunnel that leads into the church, where he overhears the elders manipulating the computer they used to find Devon genetically unsuitable. The elders discover Devon. Devon flees into the woods and finds an access way that seems to lead out of Cypress Corners.
