The catastrophe is mere days away from a science-gone-wrong scenario. Forced to enter the Risonian society at its darkest hour, the team struggles against local politics and race against time to find the starfish.

Winston’s biggest fear had always been the school bully. Turns out, waking up to being a half-alien freak was worse. Why? Oh, maybe the bruises that glow neon blue.

Winston’s mom thinks some junk left by Winston’s long-missing father in a safe deposit box might make things better. Not likely.
