Reaction Time - C S Keegan - Bog

Megan is finally starting high school, and she thinks her biggest problem is going to be Jim, a handsome junior with a major crush on her. He also happens to be a jerk-and best friends with her neighbor, Nick, who's like a brother to her. But when one of their classmates winds up murdered after Nick helps him win an online video game, Megan's romantic troubles quickly fade into the background as a nightmarish reality turns her life upside down.
After the FBI starts asking questions about Nick's parents, the three teens suddenly find themselves on the run. Before long, Megan discovers that Nick has strange abilities. Surprised himself, Nick realizes that he's endangering his friends, and before Megan and Jim can stop him, he sneaks away to turn himself in, thinking he can put an end to this strange and tragic tale. But this is just the beginning. There are dark secrets yet to be revealed-and devastating dangers yet to be unleashed.
The first in an innovative young adult sci-fi trilogy, Reaction Time: Runner expertly weaves together typical teen issues and intriguing scientific possibilities to create an action-packed adventure with appealing characters you'll be rooting for from start to finish.
