There, he and friends Kalisha, Avery, Nick, George, Iris and more are subjected to torturous experiments designed to unlock the full potential of their telepathic powers. In another part of the country, twelve-year-old genius Luke Ellis is preparing to head off to college (university) when he is kidnapped and put in the institute.

King has once again smashed it and managed to dive into the young adult reading community with the majority of the narrative being told by a twelve-year-old boy.
