Book excerpt: Sienna, Theo and Vic are finally safe, but they all know it won’t last. Though her best friend has changed, she’s no longer the timid girl who needs protecting, Sienna finds it hard to let her go—especially when the Reeks attack. Vic was changed in Prison Black, for better or worse, and she no longer needs anyone’s help to destroy the monsters…she is the monster. Jayla would give her life if it meant keeping Caspian and Em out of harms way, but she know it won’t be that easy. Trapped in Governor Greyson’s world there is only one way to escape—by trusting others, people she has no idea their allegiance, and hoping she can prevent what she knows is coming…a war. Caspian will not let Jayla die. He knows she’s still alive, Simon ensured that before he betrayed them, but for how long. Time is running out. The Reeks have broken through the wall around the Void over and over again. There is only so much they can do without a way to stop them, but Caspian knows Jayla is the answer…and he will find a way to save her, even if it kills him. Gunner finally has a father, a man who was willing to sacrifice himself to protect Gunner, but can he trust him? He doesn’t want to get too close, all he’s experienced is pain, but there’s a pull towards Simon that has Gunner reaching out and wanting to know him. But there’s one big problem…now that he has him, how can he possibly let his father go? There is a way to stop the Reeks once and for all, but a sacrifice will have to be made. Who will be left standing in the end? And can they end this before it's too late … before they lose everything?
