The main character Andromeda Brown, DeMarcus, and Mhairi, are 13 years old. They fought with Kulrada (evil aliens) in the previous book, The Shifter's Trail. In this book, the author continues their story by showing their school life struggles. The kids lead two lives, one with humans and others with Grrrmmbls (their friend from another planet and mortal enemies of Kulrada).
Everything goes perfectly, but the city suffers a sudden rash of earthquakes. Meanwhile, the conspiracy of viral videos of a fortune-teller named The Mother Confessor makes things worse. Two people were found dead in the deep tunnel near the lake. Everyone is making different assumptions, but no one knows the real reason.
In the series of events, Andromeda learned the truth about her mother's death, and it breaks her little heart. The Kulrada robot keeps an eye on the kids. The Grrrmmbls face the aftereffect of an earthquake, which made them weak. The kids were the only hope to save the world. The 13 years old teenager faces the aliens again with the help of their friends. The story is fast-pacing. The language is simple and eloquent. There are no grammatical errors. The author did justice to the characters. This is my first read of this author, and I really like her way of narration. It's in chronological order and uniform. The story is gripping.
Dr. Mann's personality is of a wicked and stubborn woman. I like the way the author describes her. But I feel the nanny bot character is a little bit sloppy. Adam Alexander wrote this series keeping the children in mind. If you didn't read the first book in the series, no worries, you'd definitely catch up on the things in this one as I did because of the author's detailed illustration. It's a good and recommendable read.
