OLDER FICTION
McCreight, Kimberly

The Scattering

(4) YA Wylie (The Outliers) is forcibly hospitalized with a group of girls she suspects also have emotion-reading abilities. Her friend Jasper breaks her out and, with clues from a fellow patient, the two seek Wylie's missing scientist father and other Outliers. Conspiracies, lies, and double-crosses abound in the sci-fi-thriller series' second volume; more satisfying than the convoluted plot is Wylie's increasing control over her powers.
