Eli, Malik, Tori, and Amber have escaped from Serenity and the Osiris Experiment. But now what? Where can they go to get help? Their search for an ally will take them all the way to Jackson Hole, Wyoming, back to Serenity and off to Texas. Along the way they discover that it isn't easy for kids on the run who have no they can trust to stay above the law. Can they beat their genes or does each step take them closer to proving their genetic destiny?
This was one constantly hopping book. The kids are constantly going out of the frying pan into the fire. At times it stretched belief a bit, and because of that I didn't like it as much as the first one. Still an exciting read for middle graders with a bit of a twist at the end. Definitely need book three to come out sooner! Major cliffhanger ending!
Notes on content: No language issues. No sexual content. Because of their fugitive status, the kids end up breaking and entering a few times and stealing things. There's a couple cuts and scrapes, but nothing super serious.
