Jason Bennett has grown up in a war-torn country, fueled by humanity's selfish desire for knowledge at all costs. All drafts have been handed out to all of those exhibiting signs of the gene HJ-GR7, a so-called 'super-soldier' gene found in 3% of the world's population. The gene usually activates once one has reached full maturation, and while recessive, can lead to massive physical and mental changes in an individual.
His twin brother Timothy 'Tic' Bennett has started acting strangely since their 18th birthday.

To Environettix, the ruthless corporation pulling the strings, that makes her their most valuable-and most vulnerable-target. And she isn't the only one. The other Mods brought from Earth are caught in the same web of lies, their very existence exploited for an agenda darker than they ever imagined. But the planet itself holds secrets of its own. And Ever is beginning to realize a chilling truth: they don't belong here. And when something doesn't belong, it's only a matter of time before it's erased. *This is Book 2 in The Dissonance Series
