The story follows six genetically enhanced children, known as the “bird kids,” who were created in a secret laboratory as part of a horrifying experiment. These children, Max, Ozymandias, Icarus, Phoenix, Pigeon, and Angel, possess wings and the ability to fly, making them both extraordinary and hunted. They escape the lab, seeking refuge with Dr. Frannie O’Neill and Kit Harrison, two compassionate adults who vow to protect them. However, the sinister scientists who created the children are relentless in their pursuit, desperate to reclaim their experiments and keep their project a secret. The group faces constant danger as they evade capture, uncovering shocking truths about the dark origins of their existence and the cruelty of the experiments conducted on them.

As the children grow closer to Frannie and Kit, they begin to discover the possibilities of a normal life, but their freedom is continually threatened. The story delves into themes of trust, betrayal, and survival as they navigate their newfound lives while being hunted. Meanwhile, Kit and Frannie investigate the powerful organizations behind the experiments, risking their lives to expose the truth. The novel weaves a gripping tale of action and emotion, balancing moments of tenderness with heart-pounding suspense as the bird kids fight for their lives and their right to exist. Patterson delivers a thought-provoking narrative that raises questions about morality, scientific boundaries, and the meaning of family.
