This book for sure lacked what the first book had in captivating my attention. From the first chapter I had a REALLY hard time for some reason wanting to actually read this book. I found myself choosing Netflix over reading during majority of my free time. It wasn't until Ringer started playing a major role in learning Vosch's plan that I got really into it. 
 After escaping Camp Haven the team heads back to a hotel to play hide out until they come up with a new plan. Vosch is searching for the only child soldiers out there that actually know who he is and what he's doing. The Others will stop at nothing to take Earth but humanity still hasn't given up hope. 
 "You've lost your home. And the lovely one-the only one- that you've found to replace it is infested with vermin. What can you do? What are your choices?" 
 (view spoiler)[ 
 The first chapter is told from Ringers point of view. Ringer accidentally kills teacup in the woods after discovering a dead child soldiers body thinking Teacup was the enemy. 
 Next we go back to Cassies POV who is still hoping that Evan will arrive back. Ben though has other ideas about Evan and whether he's alive or dead. They realize Teacup and the others are slowly going missing and go on a hotel search. Where Cassie goes down an elevator shaft alone which I really didn't see the reasoning why. 
 At this point I'm really fighting to read this book because I'm really losing interest. 
 Then we finally get Evans POV who has been rescued from camp by another other that goes by Grace. Apparently they were semi lovers when they first realized who they both were inside. Except Evan has realized what the others true nature is (despite being one) and has chosen his humanity over anything else and attempts killing Grace and running away. He makes his way to the hotel everyone is hiding in and sees Ringer run out and Teacup then Pudge (?) Follow behind her. At this point I realized we're getting every chapter from a different persons perspective but it's all at nearly the same point in time. 
 Back to cassies POV where she discovers Evan survived and made his way back to her as promIsed. A young girl with a lethal IED that gets set off by carbon dioxide walks into their camp and they get it out with the help of Evan though. Grace has followed him of course also and a throw down occurs where everyone but Pudge and Evan have gotten out of the hotel and BOOM! 
 We get the same situation from Pudges point of view where we learn Grace practically used him as target practice before he breathed into the bag that contained the IED. 
 Ringer has been taken by Vosch and been enhanced with forty thousand univited guests and super strength and healing. While in captivity she meets a boy named Razor who at first thinks she's just s another Dorothy but soon starts to see her validity. Eventually she escapes with razor, teacup who is still alive, and Bob another human. Only she never really escaped and it was just a test set up by Vosch. She learns though that Vosch is not some alien or program but actually HUMAN! (hide spoiler)]
