John Slater is top of his class at The Academy, but thatās not the only thing that sets him apart from the rest of the cadets. Heās an anomaly; something not quite human. He may not know exactly what he is, but heās sure of what he wants.
Getting out on the field solidifies in his mind; heās doing what he was always meant to do. But when he meets the intriguing Claudia Belle after heās sent to Milton High to track down Project X and the Source, his priorities shift and he's ready to demolish the pedestal heās built his life upon. The only thing that matters is her safety and this mysterious connection between them.
Claudia is like nothing heās ever encountered. Like him, she doesnāt quite fit into a box. They feed off each otherās strengths, but everything is conspiring against them. Johnās guardian, Joseph, is doing everything in his power to keep the duo at armās length. The real danger, however, lies in the darkness that wants to consume Claudia.
Can John uncover the truth of their connection? Will he be able to discover whatās motivating Project X, or will he die trying?
