But Liv is done with childhood fantasies. Done pretending she believes her father's absurd theories. Done going through the motions for Doug's sake. However, on the very day she chooses to destroy the traps, she discovers in one of them a creature so inhuman it can only be one thing. In that moment, she's faced with a painful realization: her dad was telling the truth. And no one believed him.
Now, she and Doug have a choice to make. They can turn the alien over to the authorities...or they can take matters into their own hands.

My Review: This book was really hard to love and hate. It had parts that were way way dark and then others that was more middle grade vs. young adult. I loved the aspects of the aliens but the main twist at the end was kind of a let down. Really for me this felt like it was a little all over the place and it didn't have a solid direction. It wanted to be dark but light, it wanted to be serious and not. I wished that it would have had a more clear story and plot and that the characters would have been better done.
