Adam has killed again. It had to be done, part of him knows that, but it changes a person. It can certainly change a teenager who''s already grown up too quickly, too harshly, in the wake of the catastrophic global blackout five months ago. In the name of safety and survival, Adam and his neighbors have turned their middle American suburban neighborhood into a fortress, defending against countless enemies. Adam wants to hope, wants to be what his girlfriend Lori wants him to be—but there''s always a threat tugging at the edges of his consciousness.What''s lurking in the dark is a greater danger than ever before: somebody who wants to destroy the Neighborhood and stop their strategic alignments with other powerful enclaves. More than that, though, it''s personal: this somebody wants to destroy Adam. And he knows his prey is already wounded. Soon, the hunted becomes the hunter . . . and Adam hates himself for what he will have to do. Because sometimes even the dark is not cover enough for things that would never happen in the light. - Häftad, Engelska, 2006

One shocking afternoon, computers around the globe shut down in a viral catastrophe. At sixteen-year-old Adam Daley's high school, the problem first seems to be a typical electrical outage, until students discover that cell phones are down, municipal utilities are failing, and a few computer-free cars like Adam's are the only vehicles that function. Driving home, Adam encounters a storm tide of anger and fear as the region becomes paralyzed. Soon-as resources dwindle, crises mount, and chaos descends-he will see his suburban neighbourhood band together for protection. And Adam will understand that having a police captain for a mother and a retired government spy living next door are not just the facts of his life but the keys to his survival. - Häftad, Engelska, 2017, 12-15 år

But soon, this attempt at a normal date away from the fortified safety of their neighborhood feels increasingly risky. As their gripping misadventure unfolds, it is a reminder for Adam and Lori that there is nothing in particular for them to be afraid of, because in their world there is everything to fear.At the Publisher''s request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Sam and Beth accompany their mother on a visit to their grandfather's home on Oak Island. This is their first visit in three years, since their mother and grand-dad had a terrible fight over something nobody wants to talk about. What occurs when they arrive is more than Sam could have hoped for, more surprising than the magic tricks he spends hours perfecting. Something strange seems to be happening to grand-dad, a fact confirmed by his odd behavior and the disgusting state of his once-immaculate home. Apart from losing his memory, he's also spending a lot of time engaged in a bizarre hunt for a 200-year-old treasure. When Sam is bitten by the treasure bug too, not even the discovery of a human skull or a dangerous run-in with a monstrous digging machine can keep him and the whole family from plunging into a breakneck-speed mystery, in which the winner will take all.
