Product Description
by Christine Renee Manzari (Author)
The hunted have become the hunters. Cleo finally has the freedom that she's always craved, but it's come at a terrible price-the Program wants to terminate the Deviant Dozen and now she and her friends are on the run. To make matters worse, she's finally learned to use her deviation-except when she's around Ozzy. Even an innocent touch or kiss can cause her skills to spiral out of control. He's the last person she'd ever want to hurt, but he's also the one in the most danger if she can't learn to master her skills and emotions. Ozzy's duty has always been to protect the Dozen, but now he must make the difficult choice between laying low to stay safe or starting an all-out war so that the Dozen can truly be free. He knows that if they have any chance of outsmarting the Program, they'll have to look for help in unlikely places-even if that means trusting their enemies. Rune and the Others have always been anonymous, hiding in the shadows as they carried out acts of terror and revenge. That all changed the moment the Program discovered they existed. To survive, Rune and the Others will be forced to make an alliance that is just as likely to kill them as it is to save them. Program officials are determined to erase their mistakes, but when they terrorize innocent civilians and Sophisticates in an effort to flush out the Dozen, they discover a harsh truth-the weapons they created are fighting back.
Author Biography
The first thing Christine does when she's getting ready to read a book is to crack the spine in at least five places. She wholeheartedly believes there is no place as comfy as the pages of a well-worn book. She's addicted to buying books, reading books, and writing books. Books, books, books. She also has a weakness for adventure, inappropriate humor, and coke (the caffeinated bubbly kind). Christine is from Forest Hill, Maryland where she lives with her husband, three kids, and her library of ugly spine books.
