Summary

Juniper Greene lives in a walled city from which nature has been banished, following the outbreak of a deadly man-made disease many years earlier. While most people seem content to live in such a cage, she and her little brother Bear have always known about their resistance to the disease, and dream of escaping into the wild. To the one place humans have survived outside of cities. To where their mother is.
When scientists discover that the siblings provide the key to fighting the disease, the pair must flee for their lives. As they cross the barren Buffer Zone and journey into the unknown, Juniper and Bear can only guess at the dangers that lie ahead. Nature can be cruel as well as kind... Will they ever find the home they've been searching for?

    The world we live in is, sadly, one where we feel the need to validate our origins and identity in all the wrong ways. There is now a call for radical change in racist mindsets. It's easy to assume that the only racists to be wary of are those who are outspoken and demonstrate their hatred openly and violently. 
But what about the not so obvious instances of racism? The existence of the kind that is insidious, covert, and just as deadly as blatant hatred? How do we fix it? How do we find out how we ourselves are being racist or adding fuel to the fire without realizing it? What can we do to stop it? How do we guarantee a future that is accepting of everyone, regardless of their race? 
The fact of the matter is that change can only begin when you have a firm grasp of the problem. This book helps you understand all you need to know about the evils of racism, and it acts as a beacon of hope in the particularly troubling times we live in. 
Things can be better. Things will be better. The world can become a better, more accepting, non-discriminating place. How can you be a fundamental part of making this happen? Read this book to find out.

However, nothing about this investigation goes according to plan. After a terrifying séance-gone-wrong on the stage, their mother goes missing in the building, and it's clear that a powerful demon is haunting the theater. Will the twins be able live up to their grandparents' legacy and vanquish the demon—before it's too late?
