Even Rox’s ability to heal has limits. Halo’s efforts to save evolved ones is under threat by a new organization that isn’t interested in operating from the shadows. AmLife is a biotech company leading research on genetic manipulation. They announced they’re five years away from uncovering the genetic markers that activate evolved abilities, and their lead scientist, Dr Clifford Tusk, knows just the EO to help advance their efforts.
Rox turns to Katherine for help, but she has her own crisis: Meita is missing. Rox joins the search for Meita just as Sam returns and AmLife shows up at Halo’s doorstep. Rox realizes the only way to save all EOs is to go public, but once her secret is out, there’s no turning back.

The Evolved Ones Trilogy
In a world where humans are evolving, people are more curious than afraid. They look for answers from a handful of scientists who try to uncover why some develop abilities yet the vast majority do not. For most humans, it’s an exciting time, but for Evolved Ones – EOs – it’s a game of hide and seek that ends with far too many of their kind disappearing, permanently.
