Strangers to be Avoided

Fifteen-year-old Joe Hale has always felt different from kids his own age. Born with heightened senses and awareness; the teen suffers from insomnia and vivid dreams and nightmares, just like the ones that plague his father William, a high-ranking Air Force pilot. Following the death of his mother, Joe moves with his father and younger sister Lily across the country to Goldpan; a small desert town in Nevada where the family tries to adjust to life in a community which has a past riddled with dark secrets. After a mysterious virus is unleashed upon the town and rapidly spreads, William has suspicions about his new job at Area 51—the most secretive military base in the world. Joe discovers he's not alone as he thought after meeting twins Sonny and Lenny and a girl named Darian whose father has recently gone missing. Together the new friends unravel a disturbing conspiracy which threatens humanity and leads to frightening discoveries that will betray their friendships and reveal everyone's true destinies.
