 Harry and Charlie are the main Characters who are teenagers whose lives are shaped by a society that’s shifting around them. Harry is a lonely boy from Brittan in his first term at a Las Vegas high school. Charlie is an unlikely friend, who gets accused of mixing a batch of explosives that blew up a football player 14.

The two are forced to work together at a time when gene editing technology is starting to explode. With a lab in the garage anyone can beat cancer, enhance their brain to pass exams, or tweak a few genes for that year. But in the wrong hands, cheap gene editing is the deadliest weapon in history. Killer T is a synthetic virus with a ninety per-cent death rate, and the terrorists who created it want a billion dollars before they’ll release a vaccine.

This book was a hit for me and kept pulling me in as the book got more into it. The ending is a bit disappointing, but the book is funny, somewhat realistic and romantic.
