“They were and agency of murderers and liars. Her only consolation was that they murdered and lied for good.” When Ria Matthews was called up to level 52, she never expected to be handed the reins on the most important mission: train the Unbreakable. He was the perfect weapon: stronger, smarter, more agile. Designed to dismember the rebellion before it could take off. But Ria’s gotten more than she bargained for. The weapon is a little too human, and his “clean slate” may not be so clean. So what happens when her star-gazing smoking buddy starts remembering his life before he volunteered? Ria can’t know who to trust anymore when her world is thrust into a whirlwind and lies come uncovered. But she’s in too deep and has too much blood on her hands too turn back, her only way out is to charge at it head on. Too bad she’ll be taking those closest to her down in the process.

Hadley Jamison doesn't know what to think when she hears that her classmate, Archer Morales, committed suicide. She didn't exactly know him, but that doesn't stop her from feeling like there was something she could have done to help him. So to Hadley's surprise, on the very night of Archer's funeral, she has a run in with Death himself and is offered the chance to go back in time to stop Archer from ending his life. The catch? She only has twenty-seven days to do it. And if Hadley doesn't succeed? Well, she doesn't want to think about that.
