Roll Call, Book #1 in the Roll Call Trilogy by Gwen Mansfield

In 2067 the asteroid Jurbay severs the continent, amputating 22 western states into the Pacific Ocean in the course of a day. In a world of brain-swappers, GEBs, the 14 Deadlies, and the tyrannical rulership of The Third, Avery DeTornada hesitantly leaps into inherited leadership. Avery finds leading a fledgling country everything she could imagine and more—a dystopian nightmare. On-the-job training proves treacherous and make-it-up-as-you-go tangles alliances, jeopardizes friendships, and exposes her poor love choices. Riding high on the zip wires strung throughout the city and forging hidden routes in the tunnels of the History Labyrinth, Avery DeTornada raises up a rag-tag band of comrades—an army of dump-pickers, library boys, and minstrels to confront The Third and navigate the scars of a postapocalyptic world.
