On August 15, 3019, five bombs went off. No countries or terrorist groups were accused, since all five bombs were in the farthest corners of the world. It was not the beginning of the war. It was a message, a challenge, and now the time has come for Alexander Quinn to answer. 
Alexander is too old, he does not have the strength or youth that he once did, but he does not have to fight this battle alone. 
Today, he invites eight crimes, eight teens with extraordinary gifts, and offers them a choice, a chance. Into the battle comes the rich and famous, the lost, the new, the brave, the shamed. Into the battle comes eight kids that turn the world upside down as they fight agents the killer of a life time. Welcome to the Fifth War. Welcome to a world of romance, charm, science, family, love, loss, and revenge. Life and death will follow them where ever they go, life and death will follow the eight. 
Welcome, the Eight Crimes.

Then he gets word that his cat, Bernie, just died and he can collect him and bring him home!
