A brother lost to the stars. A spymaster's secret plan. In a silent war across time.
Jesse Volk’s world stopped ten years ago when his baby brother, Tommy, was kidnapped and declared dead. Now a high school sophomore and ultrarunner, Jesse outruns his grief in the Arizona mountains until an alien spymaster appears with a shattering truth: Tommy is alive, held inside a private zoo in another galaxy.
Jesse agrees to the spymaster’s rescue plan, but when he locates Tommy inside an alien biosphere, there’s a catch: Tommy has no memory of Jesse, his parents, or Earth. And Tommy isn’t alone. The biosphere is home to other kids as well, none of whom remember anything.
Soon, Jesse realizes he wasn’t just recruited for a daring rescue. He and his brother are now caught up in an intergalactic intelligence operation. And when the operation exposes a conspiracy to spark an interstellar war, Jesse and his friends find themselves in the crosshairs, fighting for their lives.
