Ultimately when the stakes are at their highest, can Sloane and James survive the many lies and secrets surrounding them, or will The Program claim them in the end? The key to unlocking their past lies with the Treatment-a pill that can bring back forgotten memories, but at a high cost. But for as far as they’ve come, there’s still a lot Sloane and James can’t remember. Escaping with a group of troubled rebels, Sloane and James will have to figure out who they can trust, and how to take down The Program. Huge pieces of their memories are still missing, and although Sloane and James have found their way back to each other, The Program isn’t ready to let them go.
The fast-paced plot will also keep readers fully engaged, and the introduction of the scene-stealing new character Dallas will give them a new heroine to root for in future novels.Can Sloane and James survive the lies and secrets surrounding them, or will The Program claim them in the end? Find out in this sequel to The Program, which Publishers Weekly called “chilling and suspenseful.” How do you stop an epidemic? Sloane and James are on the run after barely surviving the suicide epidemic and The Program. With its shift to a narrative full of near escapes and threats of lobotomy, this sequel is a more conventional adventure story than the first volume, but many of the other essential elements of the original remain: the intense psychological drama, the passionate romance between Sloane and James, the frightening power of the Program to steal one’s past away. Before she can decide what to do with the pill, she and her friend Dallas are captured, and the group must decide how much they are willing to risk to get the girls back. Meanwhile, Sloane still has the mysterious pill Realm gave her, the Treatment that would give her back the memories the Program had stolen, but she worries what recovering her past might do to her sanity, her new life, and her future with James. Things get more complicated when Realm, Sloane’s romantic distraction from the first book, returns, stirring up resentments within the group and confused longings in Sloane’s heart. They join forces with an underground resistance group of other young escapees, camping out in safe houses and dodging Program handlers. Having escaped from The Program (BCCB 7/13), teenage lovers Sloane and James are now on the run and growing desperate for help.
