A fascinating scientifically romantic mystery about teen geniuses trying to save the world from a mass murderer.

Zach was sent to and tortured at a juvenile detention center for a crime he did not commit. When he is let out early to work with his two brothers at the top-secret Mastermind Complex for teen geniuses, he has two goals: to make his mom proud and to get revenge on the person who set him up.

Jane was orphaned as a toddler and adopted by Mr. Parker. Ever since she was kidnapped and show more tortured for top secret information by a boy she thought she liked, her father has treated her differently. It’s even worse now because she wants to bring Zach in to help get intel and dismantle a machine made to destroy a city. Zach, the genius…the boy she betrayed.

Jane and Zach are very intelligent and young adults who have to learn to trust again and make their families proud of them again after tragic events that happened by no fault of their own. Told in their voices, the story set in the fictitious city of Quantum City, Illinois, begins with Zach getting out of juvie and being thrown into a dynamic plot filled with talking supercomputers, synthetics (robots with human-like qualities), hovervaters (elevator that’s a hovercraft), and holograms.

Though there is a lot of scientific terms interspersed throughout the story, the author does a great job explaining them in layman’s terms. Watching The Big Bang Theory and other sci-fi movies certainly kept me ahead of the learning curve.

Overall, I found this to be an energizing and enjoyable read and recommend it highly!

Thank you to Mr. Rosensteel for giving me the opportunity to read this book with no expectation of a positive review. show less

First: I love the cover. I often pick books to read by the cover and this one was a "must read" before I even checked the synopsis.



Second: I love the book. The writing is nothing short of awesome. The story is original, the characters are great. It's fast paced, has suspense, action, mystery and kept me turning pages as I devoured the book. It was hard for me to believe that it's a debut novel.

And let me now forget about the style. The dialogue is witty, irreverent, snarky, and laugh out show more loud funny.

Great book, with a subtle, but powerful anti-bullying message. Well worth the read.

5 Stars for me. show less
