Reality shifting could destroy Lina's life--or help her overthrow a government conspiracy... While coping with classes and crushes at an elite private school that has a 'big brother' approach to surveillance and implants strange I.D. tags under each student's skin, Lina Pawlak discovers that students are disappearing. A government agency, Special Force, is creating a superior race of humans by weeding out those with "corrupt" DNA. Lina yearns to be a normal teenage girl, though she's anything but "normal." She's a shifter, and her realities are about to multiply. Shifting from one reality to the next, she clings to sanity, tries to prevent a mass genocide and deals with a reoccurring dilemma--she can't save everyone in every reality. Reviews: "In Halli Lilburn's sci-fi adventure, Shifters, a group of elite students traverse a minefield of alternate realities to discover there's one enduring thing worth fighting for--their freedom." --Judith Graves, author of the Skinned series "A spellbinder that captures the reader on the first page. Eerily insightful and possible, chilling." --Christina Francine, Midwest Book Review "Shifters is more than just a YA book. It's a book that causes you to stop and think about the way that we view anyone who is different than us. It will move you and have you turning the pages." --Jeff Rivera, author of Forever My Lady… (more)

Book description
Lina knows there are bigger problems than good grades and crushes on her swim coach. Students are disappearing and she knows why; corrupt DNA. Her home reality will not last much longer. The only way out is by shifting to a new reality.
