Nightrise (Gatekeepers series #3)
Nightrise is a chilling book filled with suspense, mystery, adventure, and dedication. When Scott Tyler is taken by the Nightrise Corporation, Jamie, Scott's twin, sets out to find him, using his telepathic ability. Jamie has always depended on Scott and he learns to look out for himself while running from the police and desperately searching for Scott. Jamie has to fight in a war against the Old Ones because he is One of the Five, to to a juvenile delinquent camp where he believes Scott is, and many more exciting tasks. He escapes from death many times, coming closer each time. Nightrise is a great book and I would recommend it to anyone who likes thrilling books that are hard to put down. I loved Nightrise and I'm sure you will, too.
