When Andi Lin overhears details about a harmful research study at the food corporation Nutrexo, she’s instantly worried that her dad is involved. Fearing he may be in danger, Andi sets out to investigate... with disastrous results.
Andi plunges into a new mission: investigating a dietary supplement with unusual, potentially-dangerous side effects. Cyrus wants to help, but he’s hopelessly distracted by the painful secret he’s been hiding about his older brother.
Andi Lin is ready to put the past behind her. But when a certain snack product reappears on the shelves, she realizes this story is far from over. Shadowy forces are stalking them all, and the pressure is rising. Who will find their hidden strength… and who will explode?
Things are looking up for Andi, Naveed, Cyrus and Roya... until tragedy strikes, throwing their families into chaos. Shocking connections come to light as everything falls apart, and it’s up to them to put the pieces together—before it’s too late.
