Skies of Dripping Gold

In an angry, frightened world where the Poison claims many lives, a young man s belief in Paradise has collapsed into a distant dream. Gabriel can no longer place his trust in the existence of such a place. Not when his sister s pain continues to sap her strength. Not when prayers for her healing go unanswered.

As the Poison progresses, eating away at Lilly s life, Gabriel sets off on a desperate climb to save her from death. Struggling to discover the truth behind a world where the skies drip gold, Gabriel tries to maintain his disbelief in God while clutching after hope for his sister s salvation. But, as he climbs the cliff that is said to lead to Paradise, he begins to see: if he can t bring himself to believe in a place of peace and golden skies, then how can he possibly hope for his sister s rescue? How can he possibly hope for his own?

Skies of Dripping Gold, Hannah Heath's debut short story, is a YA Christian dystopian about a young man's struggle to save his sister's life and rescue his own soul.
