I am not a science fiction girl, actually I HATE science fiction. But I have to say at page 220ish I fell in love with the characters. The heartache, the drama and knowing if she could complete her task. I knew I would be left hanging knowing that it was the first book in a series but this had me wanting more. I am waiting for book 2 NOT so patiently! Great Book a must read for all.

Young adult, I suggest 14 and up due to the graphic murders that occur in this story.
