Publisher's summary

Across North America, flocks of birds hurl themselves into airplanes, causing at least a dozen to crash. Thousands of people die. Fearing terrorism, the United States government grounds all flights, and millions of travelers are stranded.

Among them are Reese and her debate team partner and longtime crush David, who are in Arizona when the disaster occurs. On their drive home to San Francisco, along a stretch of empty highway in the middle of the Nevada night, a bird flies into their headlights. The car flips over. When they wake up in a military hospital, the doctor won't tell them what happened, where they are - or how they've been miraculously healed.

Things become even stranger when Reese returns home. San Francisco feels like a different place with police enforcing curfew, hazmat teams collecting dead birds, and a strange presence that seems to be following her. When Reese unexpectedly collides with the beautiful Amber Gray, her search for the truth is forced in an entirely new direction - and threatens to expose a vast global conspiracy that the government has worked for decades to keep secret.

The relationship between the characters and the openness of a sexual identity

I enjoy the intrigue of the first half. Not knowing what was happening, the mysterious, super powers developing slowly. Enjoyed the appearance of Amber and the mystery of who she was. The second half was a little disappointing and lacked substance. It felt like the ending was more of a set up for future now it is and not strong as a standalone piece. they involve another government and the ease with which everything just cleanly resolved, was not too believable

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
