It ends up helping the gang. Then an actor is killed on the set of a film. Fang looked up from his blog. He uses his Horsemen to kill the imperfect mutants still living on earth, including the flock. He is usually sarcastic, 6'0", has extremely pale skin, whitish-strawberry blond hair, very light icy blue eyes, and a wingspan of 14 feet. We call them Erasers, and they have an average life span of about six years. When they are both rescued, Max tells Fang that she loves him as well.

Living out in the world for the first time, they yearn to be reunited with Kit and Frannie, the couple who saved their lives. And Max, the leader of the flock, is seized by an overpowering fear that the kids are about to face a danger greater than any theyve ever known. All that the children want is to return to the one place they have ever felt truly protected-the waterfront cabin known as the Lake House.But in order to get there, they must thwart the sinister plans of a survivor from their worst nightmare-plans that not only keep Kit, Frannie, and the children in constant peril, but threaten the future of human existence. And its a battle they must be willing to pay any price to win. First off, I love to read James Patterson. That being said, this book was disappointing. After reading several reviews, pro and con, I decided I had to read it and decide for myself. It just didnt sound like James Patterson.
