Future Lost

Closing out the Future Shock trilogy, this young adult science fiction novel picks up a year after Elena and Adam first joined Aether Corporation, and half a year after they shut down its accelerator. Elena is now at college, while Adam is trying to make his cancer cure safe for public use.

Adam will go to any length to perfect the cure. When he disappears, Elena learns he has turned to Aether for help. He used the company's new accelerator to travel forward in time in search of a solution, but he never returned on schedule. Elena chooses to face the risks of time travel again to find him, and the future she enters is unlike anything they have encountered before. Someone has turned Adam's cure into a deadly pandemic that has brought civilization to ruin. If Elena fails to find Adam and stop it, the whole world is in danger, and someone is determined to keep her from succeeding.
