Publisher's Synopsis
Things really couldn't get any worse. The quints have been captured by their enemies, the Kaneshiro clan. Their parents are still missing. And the Kaneshiro clan's psycho mad scientist keeps asking them questions about the North Guardian. Which is super annoying, because they don't know anything about the North Guardian!
Held prisoner in the depths of a Kaneshiro stronghold, the quints are separated from each other and subjected to physical and mental tortures that test not only their mettle, but also their bonds with each other. Any attempt at escape is quickly thwarted. As for rescue? That seems hopeless, too, given how much their grandparents and most of their clan seem to hate them.
The longer they're imprisoned, the more reality-and the line between friend and foe-blurs. And so the quints start to wonder . . .
Just who can they trust these days, anyway?
