Reach for this book when your child is grappling with a hidden talent or feeling like they have to hide their true self to fit in or stay safe. In this high-stakes sequel to The Hypnotists, Jackson Opus is on the run, forced into hiding because his powerful ancestral gift has made him a target for those who want to exploit him. The story explores deep themes of identity, the burden of responsibility, and the importance of trusting one's own moral compass when adults in positions of authority prove untrustworthy. It is a fast-paced, accessible thriller that validates the feeling of being an outsider while offering a hopeful look at family loyalty. Parents will appreciate how it frames 'being different' as both a challenge and a source of strength, making it ideal for middle-grade readers navigating the complex social hierarchies of late elementary and middle school.
