About this listen
Return to the startlingly original dystopian world of The Record Keeper in this stunning sequel. Join Arika Cobane as she continues her fight for freedom.
With General Arika Cobane at the helm, the rebels take control of the Kongo territory and elect a council to negotiate peace. Everything changes when the council concedes to a last-minute English demand: The war criminal, Arika Cobane, must stand trial for crimes carried out during the revolution.
A fugitive of the law, Arika flees north; determined to prove the council has been infiltrated. As she uproots lies and uncovers secrets, the line between English and Kongo, friend and foe dissolves—her hatred festers and she fears even her beloved Hosea Khan can't be trusted.
Convinced she is the one to save her people, Arika ventures in search of a dangerous book powered by an ancient religion. If it doesn't kill her, the Heart of Incantations will give her the power to destroy her enemies and install herself as the head of the council.
On the brink of ultimate revenge, the whole truth is revealed and Arika is devastated; the fate of her people depends on the one thing she swore she'd never give.

Story
Dr. Tyson Klein is a quantum physicist who has dedicated his entire life to his research. At CERN, he analyses data generated by the Large Hadron Collider, the world's biggest and most powerful particle accelerator. Now, Ty believes he's found a pattern in its output. It looks like an organised data stream, being broadcast over what he calls a quantum radio. Could it be a signal from another universe? A message sent from the future? Or something else entirely?

Finn Wager's luck has run out. Arrested for the one crime he didn't actually commit, he's forced to finish his education at an alternative school. The Revelations Institute is an upscale, private reform school with a 100 percent success rate. Delinquents go in and model citizens come out. But students who don't perform to expectations disappear. And although their bodies return model citizens, their minds are hardly their own. Something evil lurks inside Revelations, and if Finn and his new friend Hope can't find a way to stop it, they'll risk more than their lives.
