They'd always known Claire was a genius; no one doubted she was destined for greatness. But never in their wildest dreams did they imagine that, at just nine years old, Claire would be singled out by the government and taken away to do scientific research.

Zachary chimed in, "I knew it from the start-Claire's been sharp as a tack since she was little. Now look, I was right all along."

Daisy gushed, "Claire is amazing! I'm so proud to have her as my best friend. With her around, I'll be untouchable in Cresthaven."
