Synopsis
This might be the worst weekend of Cara's life. Her mother is still missing and her brother Jax is off at "smart kid boot camp" in Boston. When he texts Cara asking to be rescued, she and her two best friends, Hayley and Jaye, go into action. The so-called boot camp is actually a front for Cara's mother's organization, which is fighting a force which brooks no dissent against its wish to make the planet over in its own image--to "clean it up," leaving no space for anything else, animal, insect, or human.
And human doesn't really mean what everyone thinks it does....
The three girls have to escape a new elemental threat, "Burners," and learn about the enemy's horrifying plan to "hollow out" people and use them as weapons.
Tension ratchets up as Cara and her friends learn more about the threat their mother is fighting, about how unusual Cara's mother really is, about how some of the people they've known all their lives might be their enemies, about what it means to be human, and most strange and wonderful of all, about the mysterious band of rebels they have suddenly joined.
The Shimmers in the Night is the second thrilling novel in the Dissenters series following The Fires Beneath the Sea.
