Part of [b:Kiss Me, Kill Me|10629471|Kiss Me, Kill Me (Includes Dulcie O'Neil, #1.5; Wild, #3)|H.P. Mallory|http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51ayluCREhL._SL75_.jpg|15538006]. This is a side story to the Talent Chronicles, but with different characters so you can still enjoy it without having read 'Hush Money'. Just like with 'Hush Money', I absolutely loved it. This series has an X-Men sort of vibe to it, with the government taking children to a State School once they are know to have Talents so they can be "trained". It is unique to be able to develop a good world as well as characters in a short story, but I think Bischoff did a great job and I can't wait for the second book in this series! (I'm hoping the kids from this story will meet up with the ones from the first book, there was one character from the first book, Emma, but she just had a cameo).
