Before Kayla can free her fellow GENs from slavery, she must save them from a deadly virus. Now in paperback: the second book in the critically acclaimed Tankborn trilogy! Once a lowly Chadi sector GEN girl terrified of her first job Assignment, Kayla is now a valued member of the Kinship, a secret organization of GENs, lowborns, and trueborns who fight to further the cause of GEN freedom. But she is still a slave to the trueborn ruling class, and her relationship with trueborn Devak is still strictly forbidden. Kayla longs to be truly free, but other priorities get in the way. A deadly new virus is sweeping through GEN sectors--a disease only GENs catch. And GEN warrens and warehouses are being bombed, with only the scrawled letters F.H.E. as a clue: Freedom, Humanity, Equality. In this sequel to Tankborn, freedom and love are put aside for a moment as Kayla and her friends find a way to stop the killing ... before it's too late.

All around town, signs go up proclaiming "No Dogs or Mexicans" and "No Mexicans Allowed." When Estrella organizes a protest against the treatment of tejanos in their town of Monteseco, Texas, her whole family becomes a target of "repatriation" efforts to send Mexicans "back to Mexico" --whether they were ever Mexican citizens or not. Dumped across the border and separated from half her family, Estrella must figure out a way to survive and care for her mother and baby brother. How can she reunite with her father and grandparents and convince her country of birth that she deserves to return home? There are no easy answers in the first YA book to tackle this hidden history.
