About this audiobook
The Veritas Project team has a new assignment: To find the truth behind the mysterious disappearance of two runaways. When one runaway turns up totally out of his mind and a government agent steps in to take over the case, the Springfield's continue their own investigation. The twins-Elijah and Elisha-go undercover, posing as runaways. What happens next will keep readers on the edge of their seats as the twins end up in a strange academy where Truth is continually challenged, a gang-like war develops, and Elijah is taken to an ominous mansion from which no one has ever returned. A great thriller with a realistic look at right and wrong.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5As always this author has written an incredible story. This one is a little shorter but it’s still very good.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I like that this book has a theme of truth. He highlights what can happen if everyone simply decides truth based solely on their own opinions. The two kids survive at the academy by focusing on the truth and standing for something. I think it's so important to stand up for the truth, even when it's not popular. I read this as a teenager years ago and it helped me feel I could stand for something, even if my beliefs were going to get me teased. I read it again, because I didn't remember much about it.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5A great book, and an interesting way to introduce teens and young adults to Christian literature.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Peretti never fails to capture my attention in his books. In a place where there is no rules, Elisha and Elijah are definitely pushed to their limits. "Where there is no knowledge, there is no truth."The government has an undercover project to test learning environments and how the children learn and respond. They attempt to brainwash kids into believing whatever they say. They have a new program every year and to make sure no one finds out, they abolish the 'camp' sites after the summer. In the recent program they get homeless 'volunteers'. In these camps the teachers are strict, the kids loose the sense of right and wrong, and it is up to the undercover agents to figure out why.I got a tad confused at times, but in the end everything fits together. I loved how the kids at the camp learned to start their own 'government', it really shows that, without rules, everyone runs a muck.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5it has grate suspence and a good plot
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5After reading Hangman's Curse, I had to get this one to follow the family into another mystery. I didn't like this one quite as much. The story was not as suspenseful, but it was still well written and interesting. I wonder if the series ended after only two books because this was not as well received.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5A suspense/thriller that was fun and quick to read. What would the world be like if there was no truth and all things were relative. That is the premise of htis story. I previewed it for our church library and found it good.
