When the lines between hero and villain blur, it's hard to tell who's the real monster.

Dekka, Shade, Cruz, Malik, Armo and a new mutant with unmatched powers are all that stand in Dillon's way.

About the Author

Michael Grant, author of Messenger of Fear, the Gone series, and the Magnificent Twelve series, has spent much of his life on the move. Raised in a military family, he attended ten schools in five states, as well as three schools in France. Even as an adult he kept moving, and in fact he became a writer in part because it was one of the few jobs that wouldn't tie him down. His fondest dream is to spend a year circumnavigating the globe and visiting every continent. Yes, even Antarctica. He lives in California with his wife, Katherine Applegate, and their two children.
