Sixteen-year-old Allie’s going on the vacation of her life: tornado chasing. What can possibly go wrong with that?

She must return to the plains and find those who made her this way. But this journey is only the beginning of her adventure.

Excerpt:
These
people aren't saving me after all.
They're
kidnappers.
There's
no other reason for this. They must be psychos like those mutant
hillbillies from that one movie. The barn's going to be full of jars of
eyes and noses and all sorts of sharp, scary farm tools.
"What
are you doing?" I yell, hoping that someone, anyone can hear me way
out here. My throat burns with the force of my screaming. “Did you
see anyone else where you found me?”
The
barn blocks out the sun and I'm in darkness.
“Uncle
Cassius!”
There’s
no light except for pinpricks that shine through the old walls and a circle of
blue sky at the peak of the barn's roof. I blink and my eyes
adjust. The floor's clean, perfect concrete. All the hay’s been
swept up against the walls. No bloodstains. It doesn’t reassure me
as much as I want, though.
"Lay
her down," the woman orders. It's clear she's in charge here.
They
lift me higher. The roof gets closer for a second. They move me to
the side and set me back down. My back meets a table with a cloth on
it. Or a slab. I’m not sure. I’m still looking up. The
woman keeps her grip on my arms, pushing down tight enough to keep me from
breaking away. The man does the same with my ankles. They’re holding
me down to some kind of altar or something. The hole in the ceiling lets
a beam of light down. It lands on my chest, forming a ring of light on my
new Wild Weather Chase Tours T-shirt. Or is it a target?
I
bite my lip, keeping the screams in. I can't let them know I'm scared.
It's what psychotic people want when they do this stuff. I have to keep
my cool and find a way out of here.
"Okay,"
I say, trying to collect myself. "Why are you holding me here?
In case you haven't noticed, I just survived a tornado and my uncle's missing.
I want some answers."
The
woman looks down at me, keeping her elbows locked and holding down my
arms. She's strong, way stronger than she should be, and her face is
smooth and sharp in a way that's borderline creepy. It almost looks like
a mask. "You're about to join the family that you've always
wanted."
