Book Summary
Becca
and Johnny become entangled after a car crash steals the lives of two people
they love. Officially, the crash is an accident. But Becca and Johnny are
convinced: someone did this.
As
they plot revenge against the person responsible, a bond—intense, unyielding,
and manic—takes hold of them. And in an unexpected turn of events, they fall
for each other.
Or
so they think.
In
an upside-down world where decay is beautiful and love and hate become one,
Becca and Johnny find themselves grappling with reality. Nothing is exactly
what it seems, including what they've come to believe about the crash. Question
is: will they learn the truth before it's too late?
No. The question is: when they learn the truth, will they care?

I’m going to make you wish you were dead.
Just a text. Seventeen-year-old Rebecca Hales tries not to worry. Probably a wrong number. Not really meant for her, and definitely not related to the crime she witnessed six years ago. Right?
Then two states away, a bomb goes off in her best friend’s locker. Soon Ryan is labeled a terrorist and runs to the safest place he knows—Rebecca’s house in small-town Wyoming. It doesn’t take long for the FBI to show up asking questions. Rebecca lies, of course, and says she hasn’t seen him.

Author: Susanne Winnacker
Title: Defector
Series: Variants #2
Publication date: June 26, 2014
Publisher: Razorbill
Genres: Thriller, Young Adult

Synopsis for book 1 – Impostor
Can Tessa pose as Madison . . . and stop a killer before it’s too late?
Tessa is a Variant, able to absorb the DNA of anyone she touches and mimic their appearance. Shunned by her family, she’s spent the last two years training with the Forces with Extraordinary Abilities, a secret branch of the FBI. When a serial killer rocks a small town in Oregon, Tessa is given a mission: she must impersonate Madison, a local teen, to find the killer before he strikes again.
Tessa hates everything about being an impostor—the stress, the danger, the deceit—but loves playing the role of a normal girl. As Madison, she finds friends, romance, and the kind of loving family she’d do anything to keep. Amid action, suspense, and a ticking clock, this super-human comes to a very human conclusion: even a girl who can look like anyone struggles the most with being herself.
