Havoc

Emily Webb is a geek. And shes happy that way. Content hiding under hoodies and curling up to watch old horror flicks, shes never been the kind of girl who sneaks out for midnight parties. And shes definitely not the kind of girl who starts fights or flirts with other girls boyfriends. Until one night Emily finds herself doing exactly that . . . the same night one of her classmates-also named Emily-is found mysteriously murdered.

The thing is, Emily doesnt know why shes doing any of this. By day, shes the same old boring Emily, but by night, she turns into a thrill seeker. With every nightfall, Emily gets wilder until its no longer just her personality that changes. Her body can do things it never could before: Emily is now strong, fast, and utterly fearless. And soon Emily realizes that shes not just coming out of her shell . . . theres something much bigger going on. Is she bewitched by the soul of the other, murdered Emily? Or is Emily Webb becoming something else entirely- something not human?

As Emily hunts for answers, she finds out that shes not the only one this is happening to-some of her classmates are changing as well. Who is turning these teens into monsters-and how many people will they kill to get what they want?

The war against BioZenith is on.

In the weeks since she first came into her mysterious new superpowers, Emily has watched one of her packmates disappear through an interdimensional portal; she's been hunted by creepy, body-snatching shadowmen; she's managed to form an alliance with the same telekinetic cheerleaders who once tried to take her down; and she's even discovered that her believed-to-be-dead mother is one of the BioZenith scientists responsible for her strange abilities.

Now it's up to the Deviants to put together the last pieces of the puzzle, which includes tracking down their final missing member and forcing their parents to reveal why they mutated their own children. Emily fears the answer is far more sinister than anyone ever thought: After all, why would a parent risk a child's life unless the stakes were high—scary, world-ending high?

Tired of being at the mercy of adult conspiracies, Emily forms a plan with the other Deviants: Destroy BioZenith before anyone can use the knowledge within the facility to aid the shadowmen. But that's only if BioZenith—or something worse—doesn't capture them first. . . .

With her future uncertain, the only thing Clara knows for sure is that the fire was just the beginning.

In this compelling sequel to Unearthly, Cynthia Hand captures the joy of first love, the anguish of loss, and the confusion of becoming who you are.
