About this item
Its 2127, and the future is at stake . . . Abdi Taalib thought he was moving to Australia for a music scholarship. But after meeting the beautiful and brazen Tegan Oglietti, his world was turned upside down. Tegans no ordinary girl - she died in 2027, only to be frozen and brought back to life in Abdis time, 100 years later. Now, all they want is for things to return to normal or as normal as they can be, but the government has other ideas. Especially since the two just spilled the secrets behind Australias cryonics project to the world. On the run, Abdi and Tegan have no idea who they can trust - and, when they uncover startling new details about the program, they realize that thousands of lives may be in their hands. Karen Healey offers a suspenseful, page-turning companion to When We Wake that will keep readers on the edge of their seats and make them call into question their own ideas about morality -- and mortality, too.
