Overview
New York Times bestselling author Kimberly McCreight raises the stakes in the second book of the heart-pounding Outliers trilogy, a uniquely speculative story about secrets, betrayal, and a world where one small group of people are blessed—or cursed—with an incredible power.
Wylie may have escaped the camp in Maine, but she is far from safe. The best way for her to protect herself is to understand her ability, fast. But after spending a lifetime trying to ignore her own feelings, giving in to her ability to read other peoples’ emotions is as difficult as it is dangerous.
And Wylie isn’t the only one at risk. Ever since they returned home, Jasper has been spiraling, wracked with guilt over what happened to Cassie. After all they’ve been through together, Wylie and Jasper would do anything for each other, but she doesn’t know if their bond is strong enough to overcome demons from the past.
It is amid this uncertainty and fear that Wylie finds herself confronted with a choice. She was willing to do whatever it took to help Cassie, but is she prepared to go to the same extremes to help complete strangers . . . even if they are just like her?
- Government Conspiracy: Wylie is on the run, but from whom? A shadowy organization wants her power, and they’ll do anything to get it back.
- Teens with Special Powers: Wylie can read emotions, a dangerous gift she’s spent her life trying to suppress. Now, mastering it is the only way to survive.
- A Bond Tested by Trauma: Jasper is haunted by what happened to Cassie, and his guilt is tearing him and Wylie apart.
- Found Family: To save herself, Wylie must trust a group of strangers who share her curse. But in a world of secrets, an ally can become an enemy in a heartbeat.
