Ani has a secret file that her online buddy shared with her before both he and Ani started being tracked down by men in suits. Joe is being brought back on a case for the secret agency he works for, struggling to let go of his last mission failure, to find a friend who has gone missing. To solve these mysteries, Ani and Joe will have to work together and suspend their beliefs of what is and is not impossible.

Ani and Joe’s story is a long one, but it didn’t drag. Lancaster did a great job of helping move the action along, even during the explaining parts of the story as the characters figured everything out. I enjoyed the premise of strange sounds acting in an unexpected way, but the unexpected end solution was disappointing to me because I wanted it to be more plausible.
