About this item

Kyra hasn't been the same since she returned from her mysterious five-year disappearance. Now, on the run from the NSA, Kyra is forced to hide out with others who, like her, have been Returned. Yet she is determined to find Tyler, the boy she loves who was also abducted... all because of her. When her group intercepts a message that Tyler might still be alive, Kyra risks everything to get him back. But he is being held by a shadowy government organization that experiments on the Returned, and going after him puts the rest of the group in danger. Even if Kyra gets Tyler back, the fight to save him; and the rest of the Returned; is just beginning.



About the Author

Kimberly Derting

Kimberly Derting once wanted to be a "foxy lady trucker" but changed her mind when she took 7th-grade journalism and discovered writing. She hasn't looked back since. She's the author of award-winning young adult novels, including The Body Finder series, The Pledge trilogy, and The Taking trilogy. She's also co-written many popular picture books, including the Loves Science series, the Farm Friends series, and Penny: The Engineering Tail of The Fourth Little Pig. Her first solo picture book is Baby Steps: A Picture Book For New Siblings. Her young adult books have been translated into over 15 languages, and both THE BODY FINDER and THE PLEDGE were YALSA's Best Fiction for Young Adults selections. Her picture books have received starred reviews, been Amazon book-of-the-month picks, and were featured in Good Housekeeping. These days, Kimberly lives in the Pacific Northwest, where she watches WAY too much Netflix, orders 20-pound boxes of Nerds gumballs from Amazon, and loves to complain about the rain even though she lives in Seattle, where it rains ALL of the time! You can find her online at I'm the worst about checking my email. ..I apologize if I don't get back to you! If you need to reach me, try emailing me at kim(at) kimberlyderting(dot) com
