Strangelets

Six teens, one future, a stolen second chance

This feels like a fast, cinematic survival story with a really fresh hook: teens who should have died waking up together in a broken future. You get mystery, tension, and that constant pressure of secrets unraveling at the worst possible moment. If you like YA sci-fi that moves quickly but still gives each character emotional weight, this one has that gripping what-would-you-do energy.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

17-year-old Sophie lies on her deathbed in California, awaiting the end of her battle with cancer. In Galway, Ireland, 17-year-old Declan stares down two armed thugs in an alley. In Israel, 17-year-old Anat attempts to traverse a booby-trapped tunnel to Egypt. All three should have died at the exact same moment, thousands of miles apart. Instead, they awaken together in an abandoned hospital, not alone. Three other teens from around the world are trapped with them. Somebody—or something—appears to be pulling the strings. With their clocks ticking, they must band together if they hope to survive. Soon they realize they’re trapped in a future that is both deadly and desolate, yet somehow familiar and utterly strange. Each teen harbors a secret, but only one holds the key to getting them home. As the truth comes to light, Sophie, Declan, Anat, and the others must decide what to do with a second chance at life—if they can survive to claim it.
