<p>Amy Shepherd greets the one-year anniversary of her divorce by throwing herself a celebratory dinner of once-forbidden foods (frozen dinner from Trader Joe's, no salad at all, and lots of dessert) and giving away all of her married-life possessions. The art director of Kids Press, Amy has been assigned to revise the story of Goldilocks, and she finds her own life reflecting a similar tale. Will she fall for a man who's a little too old (but exciting), a man who's a little too young (but awfully exciting looking), or a man who's just right, at least as far as her friends are concerned? Or will she bring Goldilocks' story-and her own-up to date with a little help from high-technology and the Goldilocks Planet theory? Amy will have to decide how her own tale will end, all the while driving her beloved powder blue convertible through the streets of Santa Monica, where she has become known as the Girl in the '67 Beetle, the only thing in her life that, so far at least, feels just right.</p>

Roy Walker is curious. But in a world where knowledge has disappeared, curiosity will get you killed. Generations ago, the Passim Virus wiped out most of humanity. The survivors banded together to form The Territory and, now, decades later, no one questions why knowledge has disappeared. Why should they? They're lucky to be alive. But Roy doesn't feel so lucky. He's haunted by the murder of his father and he's ostracized by everyone in town. He asks way too many questions, especially about the water pumped out by the town's desalination plant. Then Roy finds a tantalizing clue that leads him down the coast of what used to be the state of Oregon. He's stunned at what he discovers. Everything in The Territory is a lie and everything around him is a front. But to uncover the dark secret behind this front, Roy must venture deeper into the wilderness where marauders and the deadly Passim Virus wait to kill. It's there, outside The Territory, where he discovers the truth about his father's murder and where he meets his unexpected destiny -- To free humanity from the bondage of a powerful enemy.
