While searching for the HelixB88 anti-serum on the black market, Ava uncovers valuable intel that may help the rebels in their fight to bring down ISAN—the location of a hidden facility.

Praise for ISAN series
"Addictive and impossible to put it down!" —Addison Moore, New York Times Bestselling Author
“Captivating from the very beginning, this sci-fi novel explores issues of autonomy and survival in a world where there are few remaining citizens after meteors crashed into Earth … this thrilling dystopian drama has a splash of romance and tons of action. The fast-paced chapters will engage reluctant readers and fans of postapocalyptic scenarios.” —School Library Journal
"ISAN will leave readers breathless with anticipation as they race through each exciting page." —Tiffany King, USA Today Bestselling Author

*My Thoughts*
Note: This review contains NO spoilers
Wow! Mary continues to slay with this series! The build up of intrigue with the various twists and turns leading to the end of this installment... Oh yes, by end of this installment, I meant that darn cliffhanger! As with the previous two installments of the series, Mary ends GENES with me wanting more! Oh-my....WHAT!?! š® Yes, Mary did it... AGAIN! She wrote another action-packed thrilling YA story that kept me guessing and at the "edge of my seat" with anticipation of what's next for these characters!
From the first book to this third book, so much character and story development that continues to blow me away with the intensity of the varying twists in the storylines and abundance of details in this dystopian world of the International Sensory Assassin Network. GENES, as well as the previous two titles, are absolute page turners! I can already imagine this as a television series... Ha! I think that would be awesome to see this series come to life on the television screen. So, yeah, I am definitely am excited to get my hands on the next installment of the continuing saga in the ISAN series!
