Closed
Hearts (Book Two of the Mindjack Trilogy)
Eight months ago, Kira Moore revealed to the mindreading
world that mindjackers like herself were hidden in their midst. Now she wonders
if telling the truth was the right choice after all. As wild rumors spread, a
powerful anti-jacker politician capitalizes on mindreaders’ fears and strips
jackers of their rights. While some jackers flee to Jackertown—a slum rife with
jackworkers who trade mind control favors for cash—Kira and her family hide
from the readers who fear her and jackers who hate her. But when a jacker Clan
member makes Kira’s boyfriend Raf collapse in her arms, Kira is forced to save
the people she loves by facing the thing she fears most: FBI agent Kestrel and
his experimental torture chamber for jackers.

PRAISE
FOR
Open Minds (Book One of the
Mindjack Trilogy)
“Being a fan of dystopian and sci-fi in young adult books this
was exactly the type of book I was hoping to fall in love with and absolutely
did ...YA readers who love authors like Ally Condie, Veronica Roth, Lauren
Oliver and others would be missing out if they failed to pick up Open Minds by
Susan Kaye Quinn. Join Kira on her journey to save her fellow mindjackers and
potentially change the landscape of her world forever.”
— Danielle
Smith, book blogger at There’s a Book
“Susan
plunges readers into a compelling and frightening world where nearly everyone
can read minds when they come of age. The very idea makes me shudder. This is
easily one of the best books I've read not only this year, but in recent
years.”
— Heather McCorkle,
author of The Secret of Spruce Knoll
"Susan Kaye
Quinn's Open Minds is an
edge-of-the-seat YA sci-fi, where 16 year-old Kira dodges psychological bullets
from all sides." — Catherine
Stine, author of Fireseed One
Susan Kaye Quinn, Author
Susan Kaye Quinn grew up in California, where
she wrote snippets of stories and passed them to her friends during class. She
pursued a bunch of engineering degrees and worked a lot of geeky jobs,
including turns at GE Aircraft Engines, NASA, and NCAR. Now that she writes
novels, her business card says "Author and Rocket Scientist" and she
doesn't have to sneak her notes anymore.
All that engineering comes in handy when dreaming up paranormal
powers in future worlds or mixing science with fantasy to conjure slightly
plausible inventions.
Susan writes from the Chicago suburbs with her three boys, two cats,
and one husband. Which, it turns out, is exactly as much as she can handle.
