In a world where balance is key, a boy who doubts his own sanity suddenly finds himself in charge of saving everyone else's.

Six months later. The plan was to hide. Cal, Mom and Shrew out on the East Coast. Emma and Gradenko in Canada. Selina has resumed what she can of a normal life back in Flintlock. But then something happens. There are images, flashes; dreams that are someone else's dreams. Despite the danger, the players reunite, and friends and foe converge on Flintlock for the final confrontation. Will the Project rise again? Or will the sacrifice be too much to make? The end game will change everyone's lives forever, and for Cal and Shrew there will be no going back.

The truth will out. That's what they say. But you need to talk to the right people, and how are the Twins, shaken to the core, going to get their hands on Joe Gradenko, currently sitting in a jail cell at Flintlock P.D with the combined presence of the FBI and the Project guarding him? Regroup and focus, that's how. You should never underestimate a wounded animal. Or, for that matter, a man who's desperate to save his own skin. Shrew's stepfather, Dan, is beginning to discover what kind of world it was that Shrew inhabited-and it might just work to his own advantage.

Sometimes things are simple: you either win or lose. And Edward is determined not to lose. It's time for the Twins to put into practice all the skills they've acquired at the Project and pit their wits against the formidable Captain Banks. But as Edward's methods become more callous, Emma finds herself becoming emotionally entangled in the world of Cal's friends, Selina and Shrew. A barrier has come between Emma and Edward, a distance that once would have been unthinkable. And if that wasn't bad enough, an ex-Project soldier called Joe Gradenko is about to turn their world upside down.

It's an uneasy alliance as Edward, Emma and Gradenko head to Vermont to try to find out who's been manipulating them. Cal goes along to make sure nothing happens to the Twins, and Shrew goes along to make sure nothing happens to Cal. But Charles Pennington has laid his trap well. And as Selina makes her own way out to Vermont to find Shrew, she has no idea what's happening to her friends, and no idea about the danger that she, too, is in. The Project is unleashed. The battle has begun. And Cal finally learns the secret that haunts his mother's past.

The Project, hot on the trail of Edward and Emma, has arrived in Flintlock. But with a psychic weapon on the loose and the stakes upped to Level One Alpha, General Wade finds himself increasingly isolated in his efforts to bring the Twins in safely. Cal Taylor is key, but there are other forces that want to get their hands on the Twins, and even as Edward decides whether to risk his and Emma's safety to help Cal, or pursue a backup plan using the vulnerable Shrew, General Wade and the Project are about to discover that things are not as they seem.

Sixteen-year-old Cal Taylor's life is already complicated. His mother is permanently on the edge of a nervous breakdown, he's had to resort to petty crime in order to keep them financially afloat, and he's just discovered his young friend Shrew is involved with some seriously dangerous gangsters. But if Cal thought he was already surrounded by secrets, they're nothing compared to the bombshell that's about to land on him when Edward and Emma hit town. On the run from a top-secret military outfit, the Twins have chosen Cal to help them. But why? As Cal begins to find out, life is about to take a serious turn for the worse.
