Set in an alternative North America where it is divided into two at-war countries, a young Robin Hood-type character is tapped to capture a teen genius and in the process uncover the truth about the countries' power-hungry leaders.

The first novel of a planned trilogy will hit shelves in November.

Maria Faillace and Ryan Conroy will shepherd the film.
