Beschreibung
He was bred for control.
They live by choice.
Luca was shaped by the City. Trained to obey, conditioned to enforce, and taught that order was the only thing keeping humanity alive.
Then the Wilde forced him to see what the City never allowed him to know.
Injured and out of place, Luca finds himself among the very people he was raised to fear. Wilders who live without ranks. Without chips. Without permission. A handful protect and accept him. A few tolerate his presence. But most watch him closely. Not as a threat, but as something unresolved. An uncertainty they haven't decided what to do with.
As Luca heals, he is forced to navigate a world where accountability is personal rather than assigned, and where every action carries consequences he cannot predict, in a space the City never offered: choice. The Wilders don't command him. They don't own him. And that freedom is more unsettling than any threat he's ever faced.
And as the distance grows between who he was trained to be and who he might become, one question begins to surface:
If he is no longer a Prowler... what is he?
Wilder is the second book in the Prowler series, a character-driven dystopian science-fiction novel about identity, responsibility, and the quiet strain of trying to live by your code in a world that does not share your rules.

Über den Autor
Nic Plume is a Writer in Progress, Sufferer of Wanderlust, Dabbler in Photography, who learned English from Dragons and is always in search of the next "wheeee" moment.
Born and raised in Germany, Nic spent most of her adult life married into the US Army life. English is her second language which she learned through school and refined through daily lessons with Dragons once she moved to the States (Ok, fine. She improved it through reading books, more specifically the Pern and Dragonlance series, but close enough!).
A question-asker and seeker of understanding, Nic explores the world and people around her. She currently lives full-time in an RV with her husband and German Shepherd, and travels all across the US. Always looking for the next adventure, she prefers the roads less traveled - and loves to startle her copilot with a well-timed "wheee" right before the water hits the windshield.
She's always made up stories, but never had the urge to write any of them down until the idea and characters of 'Shadows of Peace' refused to leave her alone. Now she's plotting along and typing away daily to give the voices in her head an opportunity to be heard and seen by the rest of the world. Her stories tell the triumphs, tribulations, failures, and pains of the human experience through a lens formed by her association with the military.
You can find her at [...] and on TikTok, Facebook, and Instagram under NicPlumeAuthor.
