Happy Friday! As promised, below are more images from Subject A36 courtesy of Unsplash and Canva. This week, I’d like to introduce you to some of the characters.
Starting at the top left is my main character, Asher Solomon. What can I say about Ash? He’s suffered some hard losses in his seventeen years – more than anyone his age should ever have to experience. He’ll sacrifice himself to protect those he cares about and hostages taken by The Colony, but makes it very clear to his team that preserving lives while accomplishing their mission is a priority.
Rescuing hostages and fighting Colony soldiers requires an Insurgent to be in top physical shape. Quick reflexes and hand-to-hand combat training could be the difference between life and death. Ash and his team train rigorously several times per week.
The bottom right picture will remain a mystery. Is it Subject A36? Another mystery character? You’ll have to read the book to learn the answer!
Meet Brynn, Asher’s girlfriend and a member of his Insurgent team. She’s also the sister of Asher’s best friend, Noah (who you’ll meet next week). Brynn doesn’t do casual relationships, and very few people are granted access to her inner circle. Earning her trust doesn’t come easily. Once you’re in, it’s for life, and she loves fiercely and unconditionally. Asher has a strong need to save everyone, but Brynn keeps him focused on who he can realistically help.
The last image is of the abandoned warehouse that serves as the Insurgent headquarters and home.
Thanks for dropping by to learn a little more about Asher and Brynn’s world. The link to pre-order Subject A36 is in the sidebar. Have a great weekend!

Thanks, Diana! I agree – he’s a cutie, and can totally pull off a man bun. Brynn can be a bit challenging at times, but they were fun to write.

Asher appears to be a deep thinker. These are great photos, Teri! One of my favorite steps in the writing process is finding those perfect photos before I start to write. Well done! Happy Weekend!
