It's only when they are close to discovering the shocking truth of the aliens' plans that the team is forced to ask: Who among them is a traitor? Brian Falkner, author of The Project, Brain Jack, and The Tomorrow Code, delivers a page-turning military thriller with his signature heart-pounding action and unique sci-fi twists. Hand this to teens who love playing Call of Duty and Halo Falkner supplies a tight story that features a strong plot and believable characters. . . . He] effectively employs the tropes of both survival and war stories to great effect.
