'Miris cigareta mi se polako uvukao u nozdrve. Ali nisam kašljala. Nije mi smetalo. Taj miris je bio tako fin i umirujuć. Blaženstvo me je polako obuzimalo a ja sam samo udisala dim koji mi je u tom trenutku bio draži od vazduha. Osmeh je zaigrao na mom licu kada sam shvatila da se dečko približava. Ali nije on razlog već ono što je držao u ruci. Cigareta. I on je postao razlog mom osmehu,jer to nije bio običan dečko sa cigaretom u ruci. Bio je to Zack sa cigaretom u ruci. Nasmešio mi se zavodljvo prislonivši cigaretu između usana. Povukao je jednom,a zatim malo podigao gavu dok mu je dim izlazio iz usana i širio se parkom. A ja sam udisala sklopljenih očiju. Bilo je to bolje od bilo čega na ovom svetu.'

Imagine the second you're born, a consultant removes you from your mother's grasp and runs a battery of genetic and physiological tests on you. Thirty minutes later they give you a score out of one hundred which denotes your level of perfection. If your score is above eighty and you work hard to maintain that score you will have a charmed life; well fed, well-rewarded, spoiled. But fall below eighty and you're labelled Flawed, and life will not be so kind. Hannah is adopted by a Flawed family when her birth parents choose their social standing over their daughter and endures a life of struggle, hunger and service. One day Hannah is escorted to the regional government office and told that the Consultant who delivered her, who labelled her Flawed got it wrong! Now, she is being relocated back to her birth parents, to live as one of the Ninety-Five- all medically and legally judged as perfect. Entering this new life Hannah has an impossible decision to make which puts not only hers, but the lives of everyone she cares about at great risk. "The Numbered- where no one wants to be number one".

Zayn Malik. That's what he does; he plays girls.

''Not all monsters do monstrous things.'' procitao je natpis na necijoj majici i ironicno se nasmijao. Mozda je to vrijedilo za neke ljude, ali ne i za njega. Luke Thompson, psihoticni mladic, posjeciva psihijatra vec dugo vremena. Tocnije od kada ga je policija oslobodila sumnje za dvostruko ubojstvo. Bilo mu je samo 16 godina kada je sa smjeskom govorio policiji o svojoj majci koja je prvo ubila muza, a potom 'pocinila samoubojstvo'. Kosa boje meda i plave oci osvajale su djevojke koje nisu ni posumnjale u njegovu iskrenost i misticni zivot. Bile su zaludene njegovim izgledom i savrsenim ponasanjem. Na kraju su zavrsile poput lutki; blijede, bezivotne i prazne iznutra. Sve osim jedne koja je zaludila njega. Tko je ta djevojka? Kakve sve tajne krije Luke iza maske psihopata? Hoce li otkriti koliko je zena ubio ili ce ga samo smjestiti u mentalnu ustanovu? Kakvu ce ulogu imati njegov psihijatar u cijeloj situaciji? Udite u njegovu kucu uzasa i terora, punu tajnih soba iz kojih se ne moze cuti vase vristanje i dozivanje. Udite u njegov um i pronadite njegove strahove, skrivene zelje, lude zamisli i kreativne ideje. Budite odvazni i pronadite svoj bijes u njemu, pronadite njegove nedostatke i vrline. Pronadite njegovu dusu i udite u um serijskog ubojice.

As he chugged the bottle of clear liquid that was tightly held in his tattooed hand, I watched his lips go to the opening and take a forbidden sip. I desperately wanted to know what they would feel like on me. As he pulled out his third cigarette that hour, I should have asked what he was trying to gas out. But I was to focused on how he gracefully clutched the thin killing machine in his hands. I wanted to know if he would hold me like that. I watched as he destroyed himself with every sip or inhale. He would look at me with a soulless smile, and for a moment, I forgot what I was worrying about.
