The Gifted of Brennex

Jasper Wilder is an activist, not a spy, but he'll become one if that's what it takes to stop Ravel Corporation from reviving the research project that devastated his home planet. His plan is simple enough: Break into the secure facility. Steal the data. Find a weakness and sabotage the project. But all that goes out the airlock when he meets Havoc, a passionate but politically naive labor organizer trying to reform Ravel from within.

Kay Wilder despises Ravel Corporation, whose occupation of her home planet left Kay with a useful but debilitating power to hear others' emotions. Unlike her brother Jasper, an activist who fights corporate injustice, Kay has always stayed as far away from the corporate states as possible. Until now. Because Ravel has kidnapped her brother, and the only way Kay can help him is to go undercover working for the enemy.

Libbi Wilder is the good kid. While her older siblings have traveled the galaxy having adventures, she's stayed home to run the family store. Someone has to, after all. Then a stranger shows up at the store, and people Libbi's age—the Losts—start going missing. Libbi and her best friend Mixin set out to investigate, but before they find answers, Libbi's brother and sister swoop in to save the day without being asked, reigniting old resentments. Libbi knows she'll always be the baby of the family, but if she can solve the disappearances, maybe she can finally win her siblings' respect.
