Together, the Six were unstoppable, protecting the world from artificial-intelligence systems that threatened the human race. But they were more than a team, they were family. Until now.

Adam's never felt more alone. Amber, the newest Pioneer, knows what it is like to be an outsider.

Adam gave up everything for a new chance at life. Now with a cutting-edge digital mind, he is smarter, faster, better than a normal teen. But this new life isn't free. He's indebted to the government program that gave him this ability - and freedom comes at a price. Adam and his teammates, the six Pioneers, swore to defend humanity against Sigma, the most ruthless artificial intelligence program ever designed.
