Seventeen-year-old Mitzi and Deuce can recall how many drops of water were on a leaf from a rainstorm five years ago and conversations from last week, month, or year. They have the ability to remember every second of everyday—since birth.
This gift has blessed Mitzi with a history of being sexually assaulted by researchers and abused by her own parents. She trusts no one. Likes no one. Deuce, however, is a high school standout. His gift has made him a superstar on the football field and his memory promises him endless opportunities.
When they both end up at an Alzheimer’s research facility under false proviso, they quickly realize this place isn’t what it seems to be. They endure crazy military-style tests, are forcefully drugged, and complete real-life simulations that haunt them.
Mitzi and Deuce have no idea what the researchers want to do with them or their memories. But one thing is clear: the researchers will go to any lengths to get what they want.
"Reminiscent of Ender's Game, the tension ratchets up with every test...nicely done." Publisher's Weekly*
"This is one of the best, hands down, book I've read in 2014, and the definition of true science fiction about a world that could be happening right now with an incredible cast of characters." Sofia, Loving the Language of Literacy.
"Peaceful Genocide was intense, unexpected and totally awesome. I was honestly blown away with some of the twists and have no problem recommending!!" Natalie, Book Lover's Life.
