Hawk knows only fragments of her past. Ten years ago, someone left her on a street corner in post-apocalyptic New York City with instructions to wait for her parents' return. She never learned her real name or discovered what happened to her family. Now seventeen, she keeps hidden to stay alive in the devastated city. Hawk has heard stories about Maximum Ride, a winged girl who once fought to save the world before vanishing into legend. She doesn't know that her own dangerous inheritance connects her to that disappeared hero. When hunters finally locate Hawk, they don't come to rescue her. They come to kill her. Her survival depends on embracing abilities she never knew she possessed and taking to the skies like the legendary Maximum Ride before her.
