Heart of the Storm, page 24
For years they'd remained in Revelen, safest of all possible locations on the globe. There, they'd weathered the coming of Sovereign, Watcher and Sleeper each doing their part. The Watcher had taken the steps needed to secure the cooperation of the authorities there. He'd given away the formula to produce metahumans crafted by Edward Cavanagh. He'd recruited President Harmon to kill Cavanagh with his mind when the man had gotten himself captured by Sienna Nealon and the local authorities in Atlanta, Georgia.
Storm after storm he'd weathered, until she came to Revelen herself, and driven them out.
The new place to find shelter had been obvious. No more small countries; he picked the largest possible, and here they had been ever since.
And now...that bitch had done it to them again.
But no matter. The machinery was clicking, was making a new sound, a new song.
It was almost finished.
This, then, was the day. The day he'd been waiting for all these years.
This was the day the of the Awakening.
Soon, the Sleeper would wake.
Soon, the Watcher would walk in the light once more.
That would be the day he would finally be able to go after Sienna Nealon himself.
And that would be the day she would, at last, die.

Somewhere in all the lies, the truth must be hiding...
Ava Garcia was a normal student – until the day Ty Foster walked into Sunvail High school and killed eight students, including Ava's best friend. Except things don't quite add up. Mysterious disappearances, unexplained accidents, and a seemingly invisible man follow behind the tragedy, leaving Ava wondering what is going on.
Able to remember only flashes of what happened on that day, unable to stomach the lies of the principal, the sheriff, and the mayor, and weighed down under the burden of survivor's guilt, Ava can't help herself – she has to know the truth. And she won't stop until she finds it...

AUTHOR’S NOTE
Thanks for reading! If you want to know immediately when future books become available, take sixty seconds and sign up for my NEW RELEASE EMAIL ALERTS by CLICKING HERE. I don’t sell your information and I only send out emails when I have a new book out. The reason you should sign up for this is because I don’t always set release dates, and even if you’re following me on Facebook (robertJcrane (Author)) or Twitter (@robertJcrane), or part of my Facebook fan page (Team RJC), it’s easy to miss my book announcements because … well, because social media is an imprecise thing.
